Early Christians Observing the Sabbath

Celebration


“And on the day called Sunday, all who live in cities
or in the country gather together to one place, and
the memoirs of the apostles or the writings of the
prophets are read, as long as time permits; then,
when the reader has ceased, the president verbally
instructs and exhorts to the imitation of these good
things. Then we all rise together and pray, and, as
we before said, when our prayer is ended, bread and
wine and water are brought and the president in
like manner offers prayers and thanksgivings, according
to his ability, and the assent, saying Amen;”
 ...Justin Martyr
