Schedule Guide for Daveners

Consider the following times when leading morning services.

Note: These suggested guidelines apply to a typical Shabbat (e.g., not Rosh Chodesh) with an average-length Torah reading. A long Torah portion or special holiday insertions can add 20 to 40 extra minutes to the Shabbat service.

9:30 
P'sukei D'Zimra
Begin promptly whether or not  there is a minyan or the room is set up.

Mizmor Shir L'Yom HaShabbat is repeated twice in Siddur Sim Shalom; pick only one.

If you are planning a lot of singing, or time is short, or it is Rosh Hodesh and/or a long Torah reading, consider omitting some of the Psalms, except for Ashrei.
