If we neglect celebrating the Lord's Day, we imply that the grace of God in Jesus Christ, his death and resurrection, are not worth celebrating together with the rest of Christ's people. With that, we are missing a golden and powerful opportunity for evangelism. We do not have much to witness if our "seventh day", our day of rest in Christ, looks essentially the same as that of the non-believer. What Christians overlook is the opportunity for the advancement of the Gospel the Lord's Day presents. We need to be equipped to explain our Sunday rest and the reason why we attend corporate worship. As this occurs weekly, it might just be the best opportunity for evangelism.
