In Christianity this day doesn't have a name but for Jews it was the day of Pentecost.

The Jewish Feast of Pentecost, which typified the pouring out of the Holy Spirit, was fifty days after the Feast of First fruits, which spoke of the resurrection of Christ.

Pentecost is also a Christian day of celebration. It was the day that Holy Spirit appeared to the disciples, as described in the book of Acts. In a sense, it was the day the church began.

What day was the Sabbath Day for Saint Peter?

The Sabbath day for Peter was the seventh day of the week, the same sabbath day that Jesus kept and the other apostles. In Acts 16:13 we read that Paul went to the riverside on the sabbath day to pray to God. He wanted to retreat from the city and be in a quiet place with God on the sabbath. Thus showing that the apostles still kept the seventh day sabbath as per the 4th commandment.

Why at Church when they say the Apostles Creed do they leave out the line that he descended into hell?

At church we recite the NICENE creed which does not contain this reference. However, when we do recite the APOSTLES creed the current translation is he "descended to the dead". This is intended to note that Jesus came to save all with his victory over death, and in particular to those who died before his victory. In the revised Roman missal in Advent of 2011, this will be changed back to "he descended into hell".
