European Calendar

In the United States, most Christians say that they observe Sunday, the first day of the week, at least in part, to commemorate the resurrection which they believe took place on the first day of the week. Does anyone know, in those areas of Europe that use a calendar that labels the seventh day of the week, “Sunday”, on what day they hold their weekly worship services? If they hold it on the seventh day, do they do anything special on the first day to commemorate the resurrection?

In southern parts of Europe (culturally Catholic), masses are held on Sunday, which is labelled the seventh day of the week. No, nothing special is done on Mondays as far as I know.
