Do you mean in the sense of Pax vobiscum?
You mean Slavonic, no? Мир всем mir vsem. meer vsehm

Romanian: Pace tuturor.  Pah-cheh too-too-rawr

Question a friend, perhaps he did not do it; but if he did anything so that he may do it no more.
A hasty quarrel kindles fire,
and urgent strife sheds blood.
If you blow on a spark, it will glow;
if you spit on it, it will be put out;
                           and both come out of your mouth

Yes, in that sense, and many thanks.

But of course I am not celebrating in Church Slavonic. What would be most appropriate for a Russian visitor?

I'm more accustomed to the Russian greeting "Mir Vam!" (Meer Vahm!) (Peace to You[plural]). Believers would often call out this greeting as they stepped into a fellow believer's home.

Church Slavonic or Russian at the giving of the peace?

Father Peter
Hope this Helps..Russians usе Church  slavonic in Holy Liturgy so the would understand Mir Vam or as we serbs say Mir Vama.they would understand ours as.well ....
It's pretty much pronounced the same way or it sounds the same Church Slavonic,Russian,Serban Macidonijan,Bulgarijan.....Mir Vama means for 2 or more serbian way , Mir tebi means for one that your wishing peace for... Mir Tebi I Tvojima mean Peace to you and yours...

In a Liturgical setting or not even one ,You can say Mir Vam even we say it like this as well ,They know it and they will appreciate it...Have No Fear....

I need it in Church Slavonic then and for greeting one person. In my small community I greet each person individually at the peace.

So to confirm that is .... And is pronounced .....?

God bless you all for helping.
