The Third Commandment of God, and the First Precept of the Church (listed below)both require Christians to attend Mass on Sundays. The Jews of Our Blessed Lord's time viewed sundown as the beginning of the next day, the Church has always kept this tradition alive in the form of a Vigil (for instance First Vespers - or Evening Prayer of a Solemnity is the evening before). Extending the concept of the Vigil to the Mass, which was only possibly after Rome allowed Mass to be celebrated in the evening, thus fulfills one's Sunday obligation.
3. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, and do all your work; but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; in it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your manservant, or your maidservant, or your cattle, or the sojourner who is within your gates; for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
1. To assist at Mass and rest from servile work on all Sundays and holidays of obligation.

Can Catholics have a party on Easter Sunday?
Catholics have an obligation to celebrate Easter and to attend church. Easter Sunday (sometimes know as Resurrection Sunday) is considered the holiest day or the Catholic Church. It is quite common for families to gather together and celebrate together, especially over a meal. This is effectively a family-centered party! After you've met your obligations to God, there is nothing stopping a Catholic person from having or attending a party. There are many ways to show your love for God and man and in some cases a party is appropriate. However, you should consider the theme and nature of the party before making your decision.
Where in the bible does it say when was the day of worship change from Saturday to Sunday?
Saturday/ Sunday worship goes by a variety of different names for different denominations of Christianity. Holy communion/Eucharist (Anglicans, Catholics, Uniting Church), the Mass (Catholics), Divine Liturgy (Orthodox), and Breaking of the Bread (Baptists) are just some names used. A very small number of Christians, eg Seven Day Adventists, worship on Saturday to maintain a link with the Jewish practice of gathering on Jewish Sabbath: Saturday. All other Christians observe Sunday as the 'Christian Sabbath'. While Christians differ on questions of how to celebrate Sunday Worship, and as to the meaning of the celebration, most Christians can agree on at least some reasons as to why it is important to gather for worship on Sunday or Saturday; * It is common human practice across all cultures to gather for meals to mark significant events * Jesus gathered with his Apostles the night before he died on the Jewish feast of Passover, "gave thanks" and instructed them to "Do this in memory of me". Luke 22:19 * The three synoptic gospels, Matthew, Mark and Luke all refer to the Last Supper * Jesus and the Disciples shared 'table fellowship' regularly with a variety of outcasts and sinners; however the Last Supper was clearly a solemn gathering distinctive from these other meals. * This regular, ritualised meal is a way of bonding the ekklesia (gathering of Christians) through participating in the collective act of memoria (of Jesus' life, death and resurrection). Although Christians differ significantly along the denominational lines on what they think is happening in this act of remembering.
