Christmas Away from Home is the first Christmas album (third overall) by Filipino singer Jay R, released on November 28, 2006, by his own label, JAYRS Music (later renamed as Homeworkz Records). It was distributed by Universal Records. It is an eleven-track Christmas collection containing six classic Christmas songs, two originals and three instrumental versions of three songs in the album. His sister, Jhing, was featured in one song, entitled "Spread the Love".

The album was re-released in 2008, retitled as Holiday of Love. It includes six other traditional Christmas songs as addition, like "O Holy Night" and "Give Love on Christmas Day", replacing the three instrumentals. All its album sales and proceeds were entirely donated to GMA-7's Kapuso Foundation. He stresses the album's title, saying "It's Christmas after all. With an album called Holiday of Love, it's only fitting that I practice what I preach. It's all about giving".^[1]
