Tiny Jesus

Beginning in 2024, a trend on social media involving the hiding of Tiny Jesus, Mini Jesus, or Little Jesus figurines in various high-traffic locations began. The trend has since spread globally, receiving mostly positively coverage from a number of Christian and secular sources.

Starting as a prank by a church's youth group in Hampton, South Carolina, the act grew in popularity as it became viral on TikTok. The figurines, which are made of rubber and are only about an inch tall, have since appeared at landmarks including the United States Capitol, and been commented on by celebrities including Kris Jenner and John Schneider. The figures have been treated by some as good luck charms, and compared to similar trends such as Jeep ducking and The Kindness Rocks Project.
