Feast of Shalom: A Holy Communion Setting is traditional in form and contemporary in content.
One of the goals of this setting was to expand the imagery used for God, while remaining rooted in the rich tradition of our liturgies. Although inspired by the historic Latin texts, the contemporary texts of the Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei are not meant to be paraphrases, but rather fresh expressions of these ancient texts. It is worth noting that the three verses of the Kyrie were inspired by images of God taken from the three Abrahamic faith traditions. In addition to the Confession & Forgiveness and other spoken prayers, Feast of Shalom features an original Prairie Preface filled with prairie and farming imagery.
The liturgical content of Feast of Shalom is approx. 15 minutes.
