First Sunday after Easter May 1, 2011 ``Peace be with you,'' says the priest to the children of the church, for peace is multiplied in Jesus our Lord, who is our peace.``Peace be with you,'' for death is come to naught, and corruption destroyed through a Son of our race who suffered for our sake and quickened us all.… ``Peace be with you,'' because you have been united the People and the Peoples and the barrier has been broken down by Jesus who destroyed enmity. … Blessed is the one that makes their heart peaceful at the hour of the Mysteries.'' Narsai - Syriac poet-theologian / Fifth Century . He lived in what is today modern Iraq.
