"Eternal Father Bless Our Land … bring the Family Back!" is the theme for Jamaica Homecoming 2006 and throughout the year 2007 the focus will be placed on children and the elderly and all the permutations of the Jamaican family.

Jamaica Homecoming 2006 is an eight day call for Jamaicans at home and abroad to join hands and hearts across Jamaica in practical and positive ways of expressing the spirit and values and attitudes of the Motto, Anthem and Pledge (MAP) of Jamaica.

An initiative of Hands Across Jamaica For Righteousness, Jamaica Homecoming 2006 is now in its third year and will this year, focus on the family, with particular emphasis on raising children with the values and attitudes that are presented in the MAP in order to build a lasting nation.

This practice run for events throughout the year leading up to Jamaica Homecoming 2007 is designed to create a climate of hope in which to effect a change in the moral and ethical conduct of the Jamaican people. It hopes to facilitate the healing and restoration of the land to the principles of righteousness upon which the nation was established at independence.

Under the general HANDS theme "Raise the Standard, Change the Nation" with the focus on the Christian principles which are enshrined in MAP, the focus will also take into account the gains to the nation of the transference of a trans-generational wealth of wisdom from the elderly, the church family, the community family, the national family and the global family of humanity.
