Luke 2:52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.

"The goal of the Calvinist Cadet Corps, based upon Luke 2:52, is to help boys grow spiritually in all areas of life, — devotional, mental, physical, and social — by providing Christian men with a uniquely designed structure, program, and materials so that they can mentor boys effectively."

 Calvinist Cadet Corps addresses boys from the first grade all they way through their senior year in high school. The program is biblically based, but not limited to the Bible, and includes activities such as camping, fishing, hiking, biking, sailing, etc. As the boys grow, the program changes to meet the needs of their particular age.

Grace Presbyterian church has had a Calvinist Cadet Corps since 1999.

Founded in 1952, with more than 650 clubs throughout North America, the basis of the Calvinist Cadet Corps is the Word of God. Cadets study the Bible as the guide to life. The organization uses the title "Calvinist" to honor the Protestant reformer, John Calvin, who devoted his life to the religious education of God's children.
