Downtown Minyan at Yale  is a group of residents affiliated with Yale who meet year-round on Shabbats and Holidays to worship together in an egalitarian and multi-generational setting.  Though the services are conducted in Hebrew, English is the language of the minyan-wide discussion of the weekly Torah reading.  Everything is led by minyan members.
   Shabbat services start at 10:00 and begin with Shacharit.  People interested in davening the earlier parts of the prayer service-Birchot Ha-Shacar and Psukei D'zimra-come a few minutes earlier.  The service finishes by 12:15.
