Immigration Ministries is thrilled to announce the return of the Llena la Media "Fill the Stocking" Initiative in 2024! This season, spread holiday cheer with families and individuals newly arriving in the United States by filling a stocking with the options below.

Donations may be dropped off at the Bishop Jones Center at 111 Torcido Dr., San Antonio, TX 78209 during normal business hours through Wednesday, December 18.
