So I don't get this "I need a recharge day so let's do Thursday - Saturday" - is it just that you feel guilty about taking a day off when there isn't an event, or something?

This. Not every major volunteer needs a day off, and if you need it, take it. Also realize that the sample on CD will be biased toward active volunteers and taxing jobs. Friday-Sunday is much better for filling the many shorter- and smaller-job volunteer slots, not to mention attracting other community engagement. I certainly understand the religion-based desire for some Thursday-Sunday events in each region, but that doesn't mean they should dominate for that reason. Just given the
churchgoing habits of the entire United States, it should be significantly less than half, and that's assuming all those who report going weekly would be unwilling to miss a couple for this. (Unless there's reason to believe the FRC population is more churchgoing than the country at large.)
