In Prayer Book spirituality Friday is a day of remembrance of the crucifixion and death of Jesus, and Sunday is always a celebration of the Resurrection.  Saturday is set aside as a  time to remember that God rested after his work of Creation . All 3 collects at Morning Prayer reflect this. There is an old Latin saying, Lex orandi, lex credendi -if you want to see what we believe,  look at what we say in prayer.
