First question, what is a "Seventh Day Adventist church"?
Why should I care about it enough to ask questions?
The answer is in the name - the "seventh day" of the week - Saturday is a day of rest from work, to be kept sacred, and "adventist" means looking for the "advent" of Christ coming to earth and taking them to his world.
What a nice place you live in.
Isn't Sunday the special day for Christians?
In Portuguese, the week days are named in your way...
Start with Sunday, Domingo... From Latin Dominus, day of the Lord.
Monday is Segunda feira, or second fair.
Tuesday is Terça feira, os third fair.
Wednesday is Quarta feira, or fourth fair.
Thursday is Quinta feira, ou fifth fair.
Friday is Sexta feira, oh sixth fair.
Saturday is Sábado, which would clearly be the seventh fair, but is a rest day.
