Why do Christians Gather for Worship on Sunday instead of Saturday. The Fourth Commandment

Growing up in the Christian Reformed Church meant my family had some strange "Sabbath" traditions. It was difficult for me to understand why we did this on Sunday. As a church we would even read the 10 commandments and it clearly says "Sabbath" 

The evolution of Jewish Sabbath observance to Christian Sunday observance is a long one. I give a fast tracing of that through to today. I also believe that the Heidelberg Catechism gets the transformation correct in terms of how Christian Sunday celebration of the resurrection both connects us with the Genesis creation story through the development of Christian worship replacing Synagogue worship and in anticipation of the "eternal Sabbath rest".
