Linda,
 
Don't forget what Romans 14:5 says "One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day [alike]. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind."   It's not what day (or holiday) we or do not celebrate or worship on that gets us to heaven.  It is the blood of Jesus and our acceptance of that by faith that we are saved.  God our heavenly Father is not a Father of wrath but of love for HIS children.  His wrath comes on the unbelieving world.
