Why do Christians go to churches on Sundays and not Saturdays?
Elosery
Most Christians attend their primary worship service on Sunday, and this is a tradition that extends back to nearly the start of the Christian era. There is no single consensus on the origin. One explanation was that in some areas, Christians and Jews shared facilities. The Jews were able to keep the Sabbath and Christians agreed to hold services the next day. In some Roman areas the first day of the week was holy, giving a second explanation that as Christianity became the Roman religion it was reasonable to replace existing non-Christian services with Christian ones, taking over the first day of the week.
Seventh Day Adventists are one notable mainstream Christian group that holds their primary worship service on the Sabbath (Saturday).
It is weird b/c Saturday is the real Sabbath but the majority of people go on Sunday. Nowadays most churches offer a Saturday service too.

When do Christians pray?
Christians typically pray whenever, wherever, for whatever and whoever. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 says "pray without ceasing." However, most Christians pray in the morning when they wake up, before meals, and before they go to bed. But they also pray anytime they want to talk to God. People pray when walking, jogging, shopping, sitting... in church or out of church. Christians have standard prayers, like "The Lord's Prayer", "Hail Mary", etc. However, many Christians begin their prayer with "Dear God", but in the Christian beliefs, referring to God includes the Trinity: God, Jesus Christ, or the Holy Spirit.
Why is it only Christians that read the Bible?
Not only Christians read the bible. Did you know that the Old Testament comes from the Hebrew scriptures of Judaism? Even atheists -- those who do not believe in gods -- read the bible.
