Question
I am a charity gabbai. Am I allowed to make announcements and speak before the congregation during the recitation of Shir Shel Yom or the Ketoret, since if I wait until the end of the prayer usually half of the congregation has already left?
Answer
Shalom u’vracha
It is permitted, since the congregation is also obligated in the mitzvah of charity (tzedakah).
Unless there is a specific directive from the synagogue not to address the public until the end of the prayer.
