the fourth
Answer:
The only commandment dealing with keeping the sabbath is the fourth commandment. It says:
"Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: But in the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy
stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the Lord made heave and earth, the sea, and
all that in them is, and rested on the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it."
It is generally accepted that Saturday is the Sabbath, and Sunday a commemoration of the Resurrection. So attending church on a Sunday or other holy day is not covered as a requirement. Keep Saturday as the Sabbath and following the instructions would appear to be the contractual requirement.

Why are the Holy Days of obligation so important?
Roman Catholic AnswerHoly Days of Obligation technically are all Sundays of the Year plus.
