Sunday is of no particular significance in Judaism, it is just the first day of the week. In Israel, all the Western songs complaining about Monday don't make sense to the Israelis because the first day of the work week in Israel is Sunday.

The Jewish Sabbath, called 'Shabbat', is the 7th day of the week and starts Friday sundown and ends Saturday sundown.

Why do you worship on Sunday?

Although Saturday is the 'holy' day of the jews, in the early Church the first Jewish Christians began to worship on Sundays instead of the seventh day of the week (Saturday - the 'Sabbath') because it was on a Sunday that Jesus rose from death. This was considered such an important day that Sundays were chosen instead as a day of worship - a tradition that carries on to this day.

Sunday is the day of rest, when God finishe creating the world and rested. Moses gave the Jews commandments to the Jews and one of them was to keep the sabbath day holy (Sunday) this was very important to them and they took it very seriously. This has rubbed off on catholisism and so Catholics also believe that Sunday should be a day of rest (where you are one with god). This is a very old rule, and in this modern age churches have made acceptions for Saturday seeming as how important work and buisiness is these days.
