I'm not familiar with your religion so I'm curious, what's the difference between Seventh Day Adventists and other Christian sects, aside from the day of the week that you choose to meet?
Also, why does it matter what day you meet on in the first place?
The Catholic church is quite upfront about its standing on this issue - it claims that the church or pope has the God given authority to make or change the rules, and it does not say that the Sabbath of the Bible is Sunday.
So what is a Sabbath then (I've always been completely nonreligious so I'm not familiar with any of this, to me it seems kind of arbitrary). Wouldn't you want to keep every day holy if it makes a difference? I personally think it's pretty obvious that days of the week are set by humans to be a convenient cycle, and I've never considered them special or observed any difference between them that hasn't been invented by humans.
