Combining the traditional Dona nobis pacem with a new text and melody by Chris de Silva, this piece—written as a closing blessing for an evening prayer service at the Los Angeles Religious Education Congress—is ideal for retreats, contemplative prayer, reconciliation services, Liturgy of the Hours, and the Rite of Sending. It includes the word “peace” in 18 languages. (Don’t worry, there’s a pronunciation guide included!).
