Little Green Ducks

Share pictures with us of your Shoemake’s Little Green Duck and have it displayed here. Be sure to use the hashtag #shoemakeslittlegreenducks.

Welcome to the world of Shoemake’s Little Green Ducks. This idea originated on the idea of the little Jesus’s that people place everywhere for spreading the love of Jesus, merged with the ducks for Jeeps. We leave a little green duck somewhere or on someone’s vehicle with a sticker link to our page and a Bible verse that God laid on our hearts. Our hope is to bring a smile to someone’s face and encourage them after they read our story. We pray over each duck and place it with intention. Life is full of hardships and loss. But it doesn’t end there. There is hope found in Jesus Christ and our salvation. We want to be bold is sharing our faith and our testimony, all for the glory of God, and to help others have a relationship with Him. We never want to miss an opportunity to show kindness, love, encouragement, truth, and Jesus. You never know the battle that someone is silently fighting on the inside.

Why green? Timmy always said he didn’t have a favorite color but he always gravitated towards green. When the kids would force him to pick a color, that was his choice. Giving someone something as small as a little green duck with a mighty Bible verse, and a link to a website with a story of pain and purpose, may be exactly what they needed in that moment. Join us by sharing a post on your page with our hashtag and the bible verse on your duck. Be an encouragement to others and remember to always show grace and kindness.

Stay tuned for pictures to be updated as we start to distribute ducks and Jesus out into the world.

About us

We are the Shoemake Family; Timmy, Amber, Leland, Logan and Lana. Timmy and Amber lost their 6-year-old son, Leland, in 2015 and in 2025 the day after his 43rd birthday, Timmy went home to be with the Lord and to be with Leland once again. Timmy and Amber were soulmates and had been together for almost 22 years before he was called home. Throughout two of the most life shattering losses, Amber and her children have been open and honest in their struggles and in their faith. Clinging tightly to their faith throughout the anguish they now live out. Their story is one of heartache and loss but it doesn’t end there. Follow them on their journey of finding purpose through their pain and shining a light on the glory of God.
