                             Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholder,

Welcome to the MEMBERS Mutual Funds family of shareholders!

This  inaugural  issue of MEMBERS Mutual Funds'  shareholder  reports covers the
period from  commencement of operations on December 29, 1997,  through April 30,
1998.  The Funds'  fiscal  year  begins  November 1 and ends  October 31, so its
annual  report  covering  the twelve  month period ended each October 31 will be
issued in December of each year,  and its  semiannual  report  covering  the six
month period ended each April 30 will be issued in June of each year.

Although  this  first  report  covers  an  abbreviated  period of just over four
months, we are pleased to be able to report returns which, in many cases, are in
excess  of what one  should  normally  expect  for a twelve  month  period.  The
domestic  and  international  stock  funds  produced  returns  on Class A shares
ranging from nearly 16% to over 20% for this one-third of a year period. MEMBERS
Balanced Funds return  exceeded 9%. Only the Bond Fund return  (1.35%,  or about
4.1% annualized) and Cash Reserves Fund return (1.66%, or about 5.1% annualized)
were about in line with long-term historical norms.

Besides benefiting from the extremely  favorable market environment during these
first few months of the Funds'  existence  (for  example,  both the  popular Dow
Jones  Industrial  Average of U. S. stocks and the Morgan  Stanley EAFE index of
International  stocks advanced some 16% during this period),  the Funds' returns
reflect  some  unique  portfolio  management  strategies  employed  during  this
start-up phase.  The initial small size of the funds provides some advantages in
the form of flexibility and the ability to focus each fund on the currently most
attractive  issues,  but  it  also  presents   challenges  in  quickly  building
effective, diversified portfolios and keeping transaction costs down. Here are a
couple of the ways we met these challenges:

In the stock  Funds,  the initial  seed money was put to work in a broad list of
our  favorite  issues,  then as new cash came in,  market  exposure was obtained
through the purchase of S&P 500 futures  contracts until enough investable funds
were available to purchase another cross section of the portfolio holdings.

In the  bond  Funds,  immediate,  efficient  market  exposure  was  obtained  by
purchasing  highly liquid,  low transaction cost U. S. Treasury  securities with
intermediate  maturities.  These were then  gradually  liquidated as potentially
better performing bonds became available for purchase over the ensuing weeks.

These  strategies  illustrate  our  commitment to delivering  returns,  and risk
profiles, in line with each Fund's objectives as described in the prospectus and
other materials.  They also illustrate our commitment to providing good value to
investors.  Both of these are  elements of the "credit  union  difference"  that
makes MEMBERS Mutual Funds somewhat  unique in the world of mutual funds and, we
believe,  very  effective  in helping  investors  succeed  with  their  lifetime
investing programs.

The graphs, commentary and tables on the following pages present a more detailed
look at each Fund's performance and how it was achieved.  I especially encourage
all  shareholders  to read  the Fund  Performance  Reviews  from  our  portfolio
management teams. These describe the investment  strategies employed and some of
the specific  investments  owned in the funds  during the period  covered by the
report.  By following  these  discussions and tracking the funds' returns over a
period of years,  shareholders will gain a solid understanding of what each fund
seeks to provide, how we pursue its goals and how it "behaves" in various market
environments.   If  you  are  working  with  a  personal  financial   management
professional,  this kind of understanding of the nature of each fund was matched
with your  particular  situation and goals in selecting your  particular  mutual
fund or  portfolio  of funds.  If you  don't  have the  benefit  of this kind of
guidance,  it is incumbent upon you to develop this level of  understanding.  No
one can ever know  exactly  what the future  holds,  but  developing  reasonable
expectations  for the various  forms of  investments  and matching  them to your
personal  goals  and  tolerance  for  risk  is  the  cornerstone  of  successful
investing.

Looking ahead,  with the U. S. stock market at record highs and bond yields near
their 30-year lows, it can be extremely  difficult for investors to maintain the
discipline necessary to succeed with an investment program. Long-term investors,
who should be  maintaining  their  exposure to the higher  returning  investment
categories  like  common  stocks,  are  tempted to take their gains and seek the
"safety" of insured accounts.  And short-term investors,  who will be needing to
spend  their  investment  dollars  within a few years,  are  tempted by the ever
rising  stock  market;  can they catch the last leg of this  advance  and earn a
quick double digit return  before  returning to the security (and low yields) of
their safer investments?

We see many strong  justifications for todays "high" stock prices and "low" bond
yields. The world has never been more conducive to economic growth, and the U.S.
economy  has never  been  more  capable  of  capitalizing  upon  this  favorable
environment. We also see some threats to this perfect picture. Most are, as yet,
outside  of our  borders  (Japans  lingering  malaise,  the  spreading  ills  of
"Emerging Asia" and the  India/Pakistan  nuclear face-off,  to name just a few).
But we could also see our own Federal  Reserve reining in the economy by raising
interest rates in the name of preempting  inflation.  The Fed has even mentioned
"asset  inflation" -- rising stock, bond and real estate prices -- as one of its
areas of concern.

Still,  we really dont  expect the next  decade to contain any more  economic or
political  challenges  than we saw in each of the last several  decades,  or any
fewer. We will continue to experience  crises, and we will continue to find ways
to not only survive them, but to thrive once we are through them. As such, it is
imperative  that  short-term  investors  stay  on the  sidelines  and  long-term
investors  remain in the game. It is unreasonable to expect  investment  success
any other way, yet it is very  reasonable  to expect a great deal of  investment
success if you employ the proven investment  principles described in the MEMBERS
Mutual Funds  brochures  and guides with energy,  discipline  and an eye on your
personal investment time horizon.

We at CIMCO and  throughout the CUNA Mutual Group are honored to be your partner
in this pursuit of your investment success and ultimate financial security.

Sincerely,

/s/  Lawrence R. Halverson

                          Bond Fund Performance Review

The bond  market  has  traded in a  relatively  narrow  range  since the  Fund's
December 29, 1997  commencement of operations.  It rallied modestly early in the
year only to give back most of the gains by the end of April.  Intermediate-term
Treasury bond yields ranged between 5.4% and 5.7%, ending the period about where
they began at 5.6%. As a result, bond investors earned the coupon over the first
four months of 1998 as bond prices remained roughly unchanged.  The yield curve,
which relates yields on bonds with their years to maturity,  remained quite flat
- -- the yield difference between two-year and ten-year bonds was only 0.1%.

The economy posted an impressive  4.2% gain in real GDP during the first quarter
which was well above the Federal Reserve's expectations.  However, with the rate
of inflation remaining near 1%, a 30-year low, and growing weakness in the Asian
economies,  it would appear that the Fed will leave  short-term  rates unchanged
for at least a while longer.  But, worries about "asset  inflation" in the stock
and real estate  markets and continued  tight labor markets could result in some
tightening  later in the year as the Fed remains vigilant against an increase in
inflation.

The  Fund  provided  Class  A  shareholders   with  a  1.35%  return  since  its
commencement of operations. This compares to a 2.26% return posted by the Lehman
Brothers Intermediate Government/Corporate Index, and a 1.94% return reported by
Lipper  Analytical  Services for its index of Short Term  Investment  Grade Bond
mutual funds.  The Bond Fund's  return was modestly  below the index due to fund
expenses of about  0.30%,  an  above-normal  average  balance of lower  yielding
short-  term   investments   pending  more  permanent   investments  and  normal
transaction costs.

At this place,  the  shareholder  report  contains a pie chart showing Bond Fund
Diversification  of the following:  Finance 17%,  Brokerage Services 10%, Energy
8%, Technology 6%, Consumer  Products 6%, U.S. Treasury Note 8%,  Certificate of
Deposit 10%, Utilities 8%, and Other Investments & Net Other Assets 25%.

As the accompanying  chart shows, the Funds 23 holdings as of April 30, 1998 are
well diversified  across sectors,  with corporate issues comprising nearly three
quarters  of net  assets.  The  foreign  category  -- about 4% of net  assets --
represents  an  investment  in  Mexican  Government  bonds  which  we view as an
improving credit that provides an attractive  yield. Very safe and highly liquid
U. S. government securities and deposits constitute the remainder of net assets.
The portfolio of bonds currently has a six year average  maturity and provides a
6.7% yield before expenses.  Going forward, we expect to add mortgage-backed and
asset-backed  securities to the portfolio as core sector  holdings.  We like the
high  quality,  generous  yield  spreads  and  diversification  benefits of this
additional asset class.

MEMBERS   Bond   Fund's   investments   will  be   focused   in  issues   having
intermediate-term maturities,  usually resulting in a portfolio duration of from
three to five years.  We expect to own 30 to 40 primary  individual bond issues,
to provide the  benefits  of  diversification  yet not dilute  either the fund's
performance or the management  team's ability to effectively  monitor and manage
the portfolio.  The team employs a disciplined,  contrarian-oriented  investment
selection process designed to identify  attractive  pricing in the bond markets.
Securities selection is the core of our management efforts; neither large market
timing  moves  based on interest  rate  predictions  nor heavy  reliance on high
yielding but volatile  "junk"  bonds will be employed.  We believe  MEMBERS Bond
Fund's  investment  approach  will make it an  important  source of  predictable
income  and  price  stability  for  many  shareholders'  diversified  investment
portfolios.

At this place, the shareholder report shows a graphic  representation of how the
Class A and Class B Shares of the Bond Fund compared to several indexes. $10,000
invested on the  inception  date of December  29, 1997 would have the  following
value as of April 30 ,1998.

Class A Shares....................................................... $10,135
Class B Shares....................................................... $10,116
Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/Corporate Bond Index......... $10,226
Lipper Intermediate Fund Index....................................... $10,194

This chart compares a $10,000  investment made in the Fund on its inception date
to a  $10,000  investment  made in the index on that  date.  All  dividends  and
capital  gains  are  reinvested.  Further  information  relating  to the  Fund's
performance,  including expense  reimbursements,  is contained in the Prospectus
and  elsewhere in this report.  Past  performance  is not  indicative  of future
performance. Indices are unmanaged and investors cannot invest in them.

                        Balanced Fund Performance Review

The U. S. stock market  continued to advance  strongly from the Funds'  December
29,  1997  commencement  of  operations  through  the first four months of 1998.
Popular market indexes  showed  advances  ranging from 15.93% for the Standard &
Poor's 400, an index of stocks of middle-sized companies (in terms of the market
value of their outstanding  shares of stock) to 17.17% for the Standard & Poor's
500, a large-capitalization company index. The bond market was more reserved, as
represented by the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/Corporate Bond Index'
gain of 2.26%.  Money  market  returns were lower yet, as reflected by the 1.73%
average 90-day Treasury bill return since inception.

In this  environment,  MEMBERS Balanced Fund Class A shares provided a return of
9.08%.  This  modestly  exceeded the 8.72% return that would have been  realized
from a  hypothetical  portfolio  consisting  of 45% S&P 500  index,  40%  Lehman
Intermediate  Government/Corporate  Bond  index and 15%  90-day  U. S.  Treasury
bills.  This  outperformance  is  attributable  to the  fund's  slightly  higher
percentage of assets invested in stocks versus bonds, which more than offset the
Funds  approximately  0.37% of  expenses.  MEMBERS  Balanced  Fund is,  however,
purposely more conservatively structured than most "balanced" mutual funds which
typically hold 60% or more of net assets in common stocks.  This is reflected in
the higher 9.95% return for this period of Lipper Analytical  Service's index of
Balanced mutual funds.

Because the stocks and bonds owned in MEMBERS Balanced Fund are largely the same
as the stocks  comprising  MEMBERS  Capital  Appreciation  and Growth and Income
Funds, and the bonds in MEMBERS Bond Fund, please review management's discussion
of those  Funds'  performances  elsewhere  in this  report  for a more  complete
description of the Balanced Funds' portfolio positioning and results to date.

At this place, the shareholder report contains a pie chart showing Balanced Fund
Diversification  of the following:  Certificate of Deposit 7%, Corporate Notes &
Bonds 27%, Other Investments & Net Other Assets 5%, U.S. Government  Obligations
12%, and Common Stocks 49%.

Looking ahead,  the Fund will continue to be managed as a diversified  portfolio
of the most attractive stocks, bonds and money market investments  identified by
the CIMCO  portfolio  management  team.  The  normal  range of asset  allocation
exposures  is from 60% to 40%  stocks,  40% to 60%  bonds,  and up to 20%  money
market instruments.  Currently, stocks comprise slightly under 50% of net assets
and bonds are just under 40% of net assets, with the remaining approximately 10%
invested in money market instruments.

These proportions vary over time in reaction to the pace at which the management
team is  finding  attractive  individual  stocks  and  bonds.  For  example,  as
attractively  priced individual stocks become more plentiful,  the stock portion
of the portfolio  will grow, and vice versa.  This "bottom up" asset  allocation
approach is more  subtle  and, we think,  more likely to add value than the more
traditional "top down" market  timing-based  tactics which have been notoriously
unsuccessful.  The CIMCO portfolio  managers,  along with other noted investment
professionals who employ  value-oriented  security  selection  techniques,  have
often provided  better-than-market and better-than-peer  returns relative to the
variability  of those returns -- more  "efficiency"  or return per unit of risk.
The Balanced Fund, through its greater  diversification and flexibility,  may be
the most  "investment  efficient" of all the MEMBERS Mutual Funds and is managed
to serve as the core portfolio of a typical  conservative,  intermediate-term or
long-term investor.

At this place, the shareholder report shows a graphic  representation of how the
Class A and Class B Shares of the  Balanced  Fund  compared to several  indexes.
$10,000  invested  on the  inception  date of  December  29, 1997 would have the
following value as of April 30 ,1998.

Class A Shares....................................................... $10,908
Class B Shares....................................................... $10,882
Blended Index*....................................................... $10,872
Lipper Balanced Fund Index........................................... $10,995

*Blended  Index  =  45%  S&P  500  Index,   40%  Lehman  Brothers   Intermediate
Government/Corporate Bond Index and 15% 90-Day U.S. Treasury Bill.

to a  $10,000  investment  made in the index on that  date.  All  dividends  and
capital  gains  are  reinvested.  Further  information  relating  to the  Funds'
performance,  including expense  reimbursements,  is contained in the Prospectus

performance. Indices are unmanaged and investors cannot invest in them.

                       High Income Fund Performance Review

The domestic high yield bond market  experienced strong gains since the December
29, 1997  commencement  of operations  of MEMBERS High Income Fund.  This market
continues  to  benefit  from a  strong  economy  operating  with a low  level of
inflation  and  relatively  low and stable  interest  rates  coupled with strong
demand for high yield bonds from  investors  seeking  greater levels of interest
income than can be had from more traditional instruments.  Since commencement of
the Fund,  the Lehman  High Yield Bond index has  returned  3.98%.  A peer group
benchmark,  Lipper  Analytical  Services  index of High Yield Bond mutual funds,
returned 4.91% over this period.

The MEMBERS  High Income  Fund Class A shares  provided a total  return of 2.88%
since commencement of operations.  This performance  somewhat lagged both of the
above benchmarks as the initial seed money and subsequent deposits were invested
in high quality marketable  securities,  then very selectively moved into higher
yielding bonds.  This was done to assure safety and liquidity  without incurring
significant   yield-dampening  trading  and  portfolio  management  costs  while
building  the  diversified  portfolio  of high  yield  securities.  However,  it
resulted  in the Fund  missing a good part of the  benchmark's  1.80%  return in
January.  Since that time, however, the Fund has become fully invested and Class
A shares currently yield 7.60% (SEC basis).

We anticipate that the Fund will fully participate in the ongoing performance of
the high  yield  sector  of the bond  market as it is now  fully  invested.  The
investment strategy of Massachusetts  Financial Services Company, the subadviser
for the Fund, is to seek out companies with  improving  credit quality and whose
high-yield bonds offer attractive  return  prospects.  These companies must have
successful management teams, industry leadership positions, consistent operating
results and reasonable levels of debt to equity and operating leverage.

At this place,  the shareholder  report contains a pie chart showing High Income
Fund Diversification of the following:  Communication 23%, Media 13%, Industrial
9%, Metals & Mining 8%, Retail 8%, Basic  Materials 6%, and Other  Investments &
Net Other Assets 33%.

These  characteristics  appear  to exist  currently  within  the  communications
industry  where the Fund carries an  overweighted  position (vs. the  benchmark)
consisting  of 31 separate  holdings.  Good value also seems to exist within the
aerospace sector,  given increasing new orders for airplanes,  and holdings have
been added in this area.

Our outlook for the high yield sector  warrants both prudent  participation  and
caution by individual  investors.  Given continued  moderate economic growth and
low  inflation,  we believe that the high yield  market can remain  attractively
valued and should provide returns significantly above U.S. Treasuries, making it
a  worthy   investment  for  a  portion  of  a  long-term  income  portfolio  or
conservative  growth  portfolio.  Additionally,  this  sector  has been the best
performing domestic fixed income asset class in seven of the last eight quarters
and has been experiencing significant retail and institutional cash flow growth.
All of these positive reasons,  however,  are also why we are cautious about the
future. One must look back no further than 1994 to see what can happen to market
prices  when this sector  reacts to credit  concerns  or  increases  in interest
rates. So, as always,  if you are willing and able to put some principal at risk
in order to reap higher expected yields, and have a longer-term time frame which
will allow you to weather  normal  cycles,  an allocation to MEMBERS High Income
Fund remains a prudent investment choice.

At this place, the shareholder report shows a graphic  representation of how the
Class A and Class B Shares of the High Income Fund compared to several  indexes.

                    Growth and Income Fund Performance Review

The stock market continued to advance strongly from the Fund's December 29, 1997
commencement of operations  through the first four months of 1998. Stocks across
all  capitalization   groups  posted  impressive  gains,  but  the  "large-caps"
significantly  led the other  groups,  helping the  large-cap-dominated  S&P 500
index  to a  17.17%  increase.  Reflecting  the  more  even  weightings  of  its
individual stock holdings and the  approximately  0.35% dampening effect of fund
expenses, MEMBERS Growth and Income Fund Class A shares returned 15.95% for this
period.  This  substantially  exceeded the 13.97% return during this same period
for  Lipper  Analytical  Services'  index of Growth  and  Income  mutual  funds.
Although  performance  over this very short  period of time is not  particularly
significant to the long-term investors for whom this fund is designed, this is a
very gratifying start.

The Fund  benefited from  outperformance  (relative to the S&P 500's sectors) in
the consumer  cyclical,  communications  services,  capital  goods,  finance and
utilities  sectors.  Top  performers  for the  Fund in  these  sectors  included
Georgia-Pacific  Co., AirTouch  Communications,  Inc. and U.S. West Media Group.
The Fund's  technology  sector performed in line with the approximately 29% gain
of the S&P 500's technology  stocks,  and included strong advances by EMC Corp.,
Phillips   Electronics  N.V.  and  Texas   Instruments,   Inc.  The  significant
outperformance  achieved in the consumer  cyclicals,  capital  goods and finance
sectors were somewhat dampened by our modestly  lower-than-market  weightings of
each of these sectors. Also, a modest overweighting in basic materials, combined
with return underperformance, negatively impacted the Fund's relative return for
the  period.   Likewise,   our  relative  performance  was  dampened  by  modest
underperformance in our overweighted consumer staples sector.

At this place,  the  shareholder  report contains a pie chart showing Growth and
Income Fund  Diversification  of the  following:  Technology  15%,  Finance 15%,
Consumer Staples 12%, Energy 8%, Chemical Drugs 7%,  Communications  6%, Durable
Goods 6%,  Retail 5%,  Basic  Materials  5%, and Other  Investments  & Net Other
Assets 21%.

During the Fund's  start up phase,  it  utilizes  S&P 500 futures  contracts  to
provide  diversified  stock  market  exposure  with cash  inflows  that have not
accumulated  to an amount  which can be applied  efficiently  to the purchase of
individual  stocks for the  portfolio.  The impact of this  strategy  during the
period was very positive relative to holding short-term investments,  and may be
employed further until the Fund reaches about $10-$15 million in total assets.

Presently the Fund is modestly  overweighted  in the basic  materials,  consumer
staples,  technology,  and healthcare sectors.  The Fund is underweighted in the
capital goods, finance, and consumer cyclical sectors.  These sector weights are
a function of our "bottom up" analysis of  individual  stocks and not the result
of a "top down" macroeconomic assessment of the economys sectors.

The bull markets strength into 1998 reflects  continued low inflation and strong
corporate profit growth driven by technology-led  efficiencies,  favorable U. S.
demographics  and the country's  leading role in the expanding  global  economy.
However,  today's stock market  valuation  levels are at all time highs.  Market
corrections  and increased  volatility  should be expected.  The Growth & Income
Fund's  value-oriented  stock  selection  criteria  have,  in  past  periods  of
heightened volatility,  dampened the shocks and somewhat limited the declines in
Fund share  values  relative to the market  indexes.  It is hoped that this will
make it easier for even more "conservative" stock fund investors to ride out any
such unsettling periods,  thereby fully realizing the very attractive  long-term
returns the stock market has historically provided.

At this place, the shareholder report shows a graphic  representation of how the
Class A and Class B Shares of the  Growth and Income  Fund  compared  to several

Class A Shares....................................................... $11,595

                  Capital Appreciation Fund Performance Review

Stocks turned in strong gains since the Fund's December 29, 1997 commencement of
operations,   with   large-capitalization   issues   continuing  to  lead  other
capitalization  tiers.  The S&P 500  returned  17.17%  during this period  while
mid-capitalization  stocks,  as  measured  by the S&P 400,  gained  15.93%.  The
Members  Capital  Appreciation  Fund Class A shares  returned 17.31% during this
period,  outperforming both the mid- and  large-capitalization  indexes as solid
returns more than offset the approximately 0.40% of fund expenses. The Fund also
significantly outperformed the 16.89% return of Lipper Analytical Services index
of Capital Appreciation mutual funds.  Although performance over this very short
period of time is not  particularly  significant to the long-term  investors for
whom this fund is designed, this is a very gratifying start.

Technology stocks led the market during this period,  rebounding  strongly after
the group's  poor showing in the fourth  quarter of 1997 as the Asian  financial
crisis was unfolding. Portfolio holdings such as Gateway 2000 and EMC Corp. were
notably strong  performers,  leading this sector to an approximately 35% gain in
the period versus the  approximately 29% advance staged by the technology sector
of the S&P 500. Retail issues like Wal-Mart Stores,  Inc.,  Dayton-Hudson  Corp.
and TJX  Companies,  Inc.  performed  very well,  helping the consumer  cyclical
sector of the Fund's portfolio to gain over 20% versus the S&P 500 sector's 13%.
Healthcare  was a strong  area for both the  market  indexes  and the Fund (ALZA
Corp. and United Healthcare Corp. did exceptionally well). The energy, utilities
and capital  goods  sectors were weak  performers  during this  period,  and the
Fund's  relative  underperformance  in energy and  especially  in capital  goods
somewhat dampened the Fund's return.

At this place,  the  shareholder  report  contains a pie chart  showing  Capital
Appreciation  Fund  Diversification  of the following:  Technology 18%, Consumer
Staples 14%,  Finance 13%,  Retail 11%,  Energy 8%,  Chemical  Drugs 7%,  Health
Services 5%, Basic Materials 5%,  Communication  5%, and Other Investments & Net
Other Assets 14%.

During the Fund's  start up phase,  it  utilizes  S&P 500 futures  contracts  to
provide  diversified  stock  market  exposure  with cash  inflows  that have not
accumulated  to an amount  which can be applied  efficiently  to the purchase of
individual  stocks for the  portfolio.  The impact of this  strategy  during the
period was very positive relative to holding short-term investments,  and may be
employed further until the Fund reaches about $10-$15 million in total assets.

At present,  the Fund remains  modestly  overweighted  in the consumer  staples,
healthcare and basic materials sectors.  Underweighted  sectors include finance,
capital  goods,  and  utilities.  These  sector  weights  are the  result of our
"bottom-up"  analysis of the relative  attractiveness  of the individual  stocks
within our  investable  universe,  not a  "top-down"  assessment  of the various
sectors.

The  long-term  outlook  for U.  S.  stocks  remains  extremely  favorable  with
continued stable profit growth,  low inflation and a strong demand for equities.
However, with the U. S. stock market at all-time high valuation levels, a period
of consolidation and/or increased volatility may ensue. The Capital Appreciation
Fund is the more  "aggressive"  of  MEMBERS  Funds' two stock  funds,  and would
certainly be affected by any such market occurrences.  Still, the value-oriented
stock  selection  criteria  employed  in the  Fund  have,  in  past  periods  of
heightened volatility,  dampened the shocks and somewhat limited the declines in
Fund  share  values   relative  to  other  "capital   appreciation"   funds  and
representative  market  indexes.  It is hoped  that this will make it easier for
shareholders  to ride out any such unsettling  periods,  thereby fully realizing
the  very  attractive  long-term  returns  the  stock  market  has  historically
provided.

                  International Stock Fund Performance Review:

The  international  stock  market  experienced  solid  overall  gains  since the
December 29, 1997  commencement  of  operations of MEMBERS  International  Stock
Fund,  despite  pockets of continued  weakness and volatility in portions of the
Pacific Basin.  Returns from the broad  international  market as measured by the
Morgan Stanley Europe,  Australia and Far East (EAFE) index nearly matched those
of the domestic S&P 500, gaining 15.92% in U.S. dollars.

MEMBERS  International  Stock  Fund Class A shares  provided  a total  return of
17.91% for the same time  period,  exceeding  both the EAFE index and the Lipper
Analytical  Services  index of  International  Stock mutual funds which returned
17.22%.  The Fund also  posted a positive  return of 2.08% in the month of April
despite  significant  difficulties  in the broader  market  which led to an EAFE
return of only 0.67% and actual losses in  international  small cap and emerging
market indexes.

The Fund's  outperformance  during this time  period was due to  positive  stock
selection and a significant 15% exposure to the small capitalization  markets of
developed  international  countries  which surged over 18% during the first four
months of 1998. The Fund's exposure to emerging  markets  dampened  overall Fund
performance  as this sector of the  international  markets  advanced about 5.82%
since commencement of the Fund.

The recovery of the Asian markets from the broad collapse experienced during the
second half of 1997,  along with  excellent  performance  across  most  European
markets,  helped  drive the Fund's  performance.  European  markets  anticipated
confirmation that all eleven countries would qualify for the Euro currency union
and were also supported by a spate of favorable  corporate activity and results.
The Fund maintains a strong presence in continental  Europe,  especially  France
which continues to offer superior value opportunities, and owns select small cap
companies   across  Europe  which  should  continue  to  benefit  from  Europe's
rebounding economy, corporate restructurings, and increasingly investor-friendly
policies being deployed by more and more companies.

At this place, the shareholder report contains a pie chart showing International
Stock Fund  Diversification  of the following:  France 14%,  United Kingdom 13%,
Germany  9%,  Australia  5% Japan  13%,  Finland  4%,  Hong  Kong 4%,  and Other
Investments & Net Other Assets 38%

Meanwhile, the Asian recovery, while providing hope across many sectors, remains
muted. A Japanese  government  stimulus package did not meet market expectations
causing  returns to languish.  While  values are  beginning to appear in certain
sectors of the Japanese market,  the Fund remains  underweighted  there awaiting
further signals of economic  improvement.  We also hold long-term enthusiasm for
maintaining  exposure to select emerging market opportunities which offer strong
brand  franchises,  healthy  balance  sheets  and  appealing  valuations.  Stock
selection   continues  to  increase  in  importance  in  these  markets  due  to
deregulation and improved company disclosures.

Going forward, we are confident that the strong  value-oriented  stock selection
methodology  utilized  by the  Fund's  team of  subadvisers,  combined  with our
continued  mix of  allocating  70% of new fund  inflows to  large-cap  developed
markets,  15% to small-cap  developed markets and 15% to emerging markets,  will
continue to produce solid risk-adjusted returns and valuable  diversification to
predominantly domestic securities portfolios

MEMBERS  Mutual Funds are a group of open-end  investment  companies,  typically
called mutual funds. Each fund is a separate  investment  portfolio with its own
investment   objective,   policies,   restrictions   and  attendant  risks.  The
information  in  this  table  provides  an  overview,   summarizing  the  funds'
investment objectives, management, and primary strategies. For more specific and
complete  information  on the funds,  please  refer to your  prospectus  and the
statement of additional information.

Cash Reserves Fund

Investment Objective
The Cash Reserves Fund seeks high current  income from money market  instruments
consistent with the  preservation of capital and liquidity.  The fund intends to
maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share.

Portfolio Management
The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio managers.

Primary Investment Strategies
The Cash  Reserves Fund invests  exclusively  in U.S.  dollar-denominated  money
market securities maturing in thirteen months or less from the date of purchase,
including  those issued by U.S. and foreign  financial  institutions,  corporate
issuers,   the  U.S.   Government   and  its  agencies  and   instrumentalities,
municipalities,  foreign government, and multinational organizations such as the
World  Bank.  At least 95% of the  fund's  assets  must be rated in the  highest
short-term category (or its unrated  equivalent),  and 100% of the fund's assets

turn to page 12.

Bond Fund

Investment Objective
The Bond Fund seeks to generate a high level of current income,  consistent with
the prudent  limitation of risk,  primarily through  investment in a diversified
portfolio of income bearing securities.

Portfolio Management
The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio managers.

Primary Investment Strategies
To keep current income  relatively  stable and to limit share price  volatility,
the  Bond  Fund  emphasizes   investment   grade  securities  and  maintains  an
intermediate  (typically 3 to 6 years) average portfolio duration.  Under normal
circumstances,  the fund invests at least 80% of its assets in such  securities.
The fund may invest in the following instruments:
       Corporate Debt Securities
       U.S. Government Debt Securities
       Foreign Government Debt Securities
       Other issuer debt securities.

The fund may also invest in asset-backed and  mortgage-backed  securities to the
extent permitted by law and available in the market.

Balanced Fund

Investment Objective
The Balanced Fund seeks a high total return  through the  combination  of income
and capital appreciation.

Portfolio Management
The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio managers.

Primary Investment  Strategies

The Balanced Fund invests in a broadly diversified array of securities including
common stocks, bonds and money market instruments.  The percentage of the fund's
assets invested in equity securities, income bearing securities and money market
instruments  may vary  somewhat  depending  upon  management's  judgement of the
relative  attractiveness  of each sector and anticipated cash needs of the fund.
Generally,  however,  common  stocks  will  constitute  60% to 40% of the fund's
assets,  bonds will  constitute 40% to 60% of the fund's assets and money market
instruments may constitute up to 20% of the fund's assets.

High Income Fund

Investment Objective
The High Income  Fund seeks high  current  income by  investing  primarily  in a
diversified  portfolio of lower-rated,  higher yielding income  securities.  The
fund also seeks capital appreciation,  but only when consistent with its primary
goal.

Portfolio Management
CIMCO uses one or more  subadvisers  under a "manager of  managers"  approach to
make  investment  decisions  for this  fund.  Massachusetts  Financial  Services
Company is the only  subadviser  currently used by CIMCO to manage the assets of
the fund.

Primary Investment Strategies
The High Income Fund invests  primarily in lower-rated,  higher-yielding  income
bearing  securities,  such as "junk"  bonds.  Because the  performance  of these
securities has historically been strongly influenced by economic conditions, the
fund may  rotate  securities  selection  by  business  sector  according  to the
economic outlook. Under normal market conditions,  the fund invests at least 80%
of its assets in bonds rated lower than  investment  grade  (BBB/Baa)  and their
unrated equivalents or other high-yielding securities.

Growth and Income Fund

Investment Objective
The Growth and Income  Fund seeks  long-term  capital  growth  with  income as a
secondary consideration.

Portfolio Management
The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio managers.

Primary Investment  Strategies
The Growth and Income Fund will focus on stocks of companies  with financial and
market strength and a long-term record of financial performance, and will, under
normal  market  conditions,  maintain at least 80% of its assets in such stocks.
Primarily  through  ownership of a  diversified  portfolio of common  stocks and
securities  convertible into common stocks,  the fund will seek a rate of return
in  excess  of  returns  typically   available  from  less  variable  investment
alternatives.  The fund will typically invest in securities  representing  every
sector of the S&P 500 in approximately the same weightings as such sector has in
the S&P 500.

Capital Appreciation  Fund

Investment Objective
The Capital Appreciation Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

Portfolio Management
The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio managers.

Primary Investment Strategies
The Capital  Appreciation  Fund invests  primarily in common  stocks,  and will,
under  normal  market  conditions,  maintain  at least 80% of its assets in such
securities.  The fund seeks stocks that have a low market price  relative to the
portfolio managers' expected level and certainty of the issuing company's future
earnings.  Relative to the Growth and Income Fund, the Capital Appreciation Fund
will include some smaller,  less developed issuers and some companies undergoing
more significant changes in their operations or experiencing significant changes
in their markets.  The fund will diversify its holdings among various industries
and among companies  within those  industries but will often be less diversified
than the Growth and Income Fund.

International Stock Fund

Investment Objective
The  International  Stock Fund seeks  long-term  growth of capital by  investing
primarily in foreign equity securities.

Portfolio Management
CIMCO uses one or more  subadvisers  under a "manager of  managers"  approach to
make investment  decisions for this fund. IAI  International  Limited and Lazard
Asset  Management  are the  subadvisers  currently  used by CIMCO to manage  the
assets of the Fund.

Primary Investment Strategies
Under normal market  conditions,  the International  Stock Fund invests at least
80%  of  its  assets  in  foreign  equity  securities.  Foreign  securities  are

are outside the U.S., are issued by a foreign government, are principally traded
outside of the U.S., or are quoted or denominated in a foreign currency.  Equity
securities  include common stocks,  securities  convertible  into common stocks,

                    Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION
MEMBERS  Mutual Funds, a Delaware  Business  Trust (the "Trust"),  is registered
under the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940,  as amended  (the "1940 Act") as an
open-end,  diversified  management  investment  company.  As of the date of this
report, the Trust offers seven Funds (individually,  a "Fund", collectively, the
"Funds")  each with two  classes of  shares:  Class A and Class B. Each class of
shares  represents  interests in the assets of the  Portfolio  and has identical
voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights, except that each class of shares
bears  its own  distribution  fees  and its  proportional  share  of fund  level
expenses,  is subject to its own sales charges, if any, and has exclusive voting
rights on matters pertaining to the Rule 12b-1 plan as it relates to that class.
The accompanying financial statements include the Cash Reserves Fund, Bond Fund,
Balanced Fund, High Income Fund,  Growth and Income Fund,  Capital  Appreciation
Fund and  International  Stock Fund, each commencing  operations on December 29,
1997.

The only  transactions of the Funds prior to commencement of operations were the
sale of 49,000 Class A shares and 1,000 Class B shares of Cash  Reserves Fund at
$1 per share and the sale of 4,900 Class A shares and 100 Class B shares of Bond
Fund,  Balanced  Fund,  High  Income  Fund,  Growth  and  Income  Fund,  Capital
Appreciation Fund and International  Stock Fund at $10 per share on November 10,
1997.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of
contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial  statements and
the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual
results  could  differ  from  those  estimates.  The  following  is a summary of
significant  accounting  policies  consistently  followed  by  each  Fund in the
preparation of its financial statements

Portfolio Valuation:  Investments in securities which are traded on a recognized
stock  exchange or for which price  quotations  are  available  will normally be
valued on the basis of market  quotations  furnished by a pricing  service which
has been approved by The Board of Trustees.  Short-term  obligations that mature
in sixty days or less are  valued at  amortized  cost,  which  constitutes  fair
value.  All other securities and other assets are appraised at their fair values
as determined in good faith by and under the general supervision of The Board of
Trustees.

Security Transactions and Investment Income: Security transactions are accounted
for on a trade date basis.  Net realized gains or losses on sales are determined
by the identified cost method. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
Dividend income is recorded on ex-dividend date.

Federal  Income  Taxes:  It is each Fund's  intention  to qualify as a regulated
investment  company  for  federal  income tax  purposes  by  complying  with the
appropriate  provisions  of the  Internal  Revenue  Code of  1986,  as  amended.
Accordingly,  no  provisions  for  federal  income  taxes  are  required  in the
accompanying financial statements.

Classes:  Class-specific  expenses  are borne by that class.  Income,  non-class
specific expenses, and realized and unrealized gains/losses are allocated to the
respective classes on the basis of relative net assets.

Expenses:  Expenses  that are  directly  related to one of the Funds are charged
directly to that Fund. Other operating  expenses of the Fund are prorated to the
Funds on the basis of relative net assets.

Organization  and Offering  Costs:  Each Fund bears all costs in connection with
its organization, including registration and notification fees and expenses with
respect  to the  sale  of  their  shares  under  federal  and  state  securities
regulation.  These  organization  and  offering  costs are being  amortized on a
straight-line basis over five years and one year, respectively. In the event any
of the initial  shares of a Fund are redeemed by any holder  thereof  during the
amortization  period,  the  proceeds of such  redemptions  will be reduced by an
amount  equal to the pro-rata  portion of  unamortized  deferred  organizational
expenses in the same  proportion as the number of shares being redeemed bears to
the  number  of  initial  shares of such  Fund  outstanding  at the time of such
redemption.  To the extent that proceeds of the  redemptions  are less than such
pro-rata portion of any unamortized organizational expenses, CIMCO has agreed to
reimburse the Fund promptly.

Repurchase  Agreements:  Each fund may  engage in  repurchase  agreements.  In a
repurchase  agreement,  a security is purchased  for a  relatively  short period
(usually not more than 7 days) subject to the  obligation to sell it back to the
issuer at a fixed time and price  plus  accrued  interest.  The funds will enter
into repurchase  agreements only with member banks of the Federal Reserve System
and with primary dealers in U.S. Government securities.

Foreign  Currency  Transactions:  The books and records are  maintained  in U.S.
dollars.  Foreign  currency  amounts  are  translated  into U.S.  dollars on the
following basis:

(1)  market  value of  investment  securities,  assets  and  liabilities  at the
     current rate of exchange; and

(2)  purchases and sales of investment  securities,  income, and expenses at the
     relevant  rates of  exchange  prevailing  on the  respective  dates of such
     transactions.

The  High  Income  and   International   Stock  Funds  report  certain   foreign
currency-related  transactions  as  components  of realized  gains or losses for
financial  reporting  purposes,  whereas such components are treated as ordinary
income for federal income tax purposes.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange  Contracts:  The High Income and International
Stock Funds may each  purchase or sell forward  foreign  currency  contracts for
defensive or hedging  purposes when the Fund's  Investment  Adviser  anticipates
that the foreign  currency will  appreciate  or  depreciate in value.  The Funds
realize a gain or a loss at the time the  forward  contracts  are  closed out or
offset by a matching contract.  As of April 30, 1998,  International  Stock Fund
had open forward foreign currency contracts.

Futures  Contracts:  The Funds (other than the Cash Reserves  Fund) may purchase
and sell futures contracts and purchase and write options on futures  contracts.
Cash or securities are deposited with brokers in order to establish and maintain
a position.  Subsequent payments made or received by the Fund based on the daily
change in the market value of the position are recorded as  unrealized  gains or
losses  until the  contract is closed out, at which time the gains or losses are
realized.

3. ADVISORY, ADMINISTRATION AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS
The Trust has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with CIMCO Inc. (the
"Investment  Adviser").  For its investment advisory services to the Portfolios,
CIMCO is entitled to receive a fee, which is calculated  daily and paid monthly,
at an annual  rate based upon the  following  percentages  of average  daily net
asset value:  0.40% for the Cash Reserves Fund;  0.50% for the Bond Fund;  0.65%
for the  Balanced  Fund;  0.55% for the High  Income  Fund and Growth and Income
Fund; 0.75% for the Capital  Appreciation  Fund and 1.05% for the  International
Stock  Fund.  The  Manager  has  entered  into  Subadviser  Agreements  for  the
management  of the  investments  of the High Income  Fund and the  International
Stock Fund. The Manager is solely responsible for the payment of all fees to the
Subadvisers.  The  Subadvisers  for  these  funds  are  Massachusetts  Financial
Services  Company  for the High Income  Fund and IAI  International  Limited and
Lazard Asset Management for the International Stock Fund.

The Investment Adviser  voluntarily agrees to waive a portion of its fees and to
reimburse the Funds for certain  expenses so that total expenses will not exceed
certain  expense  limitations.  The Investment  Adviser at its  discretion,  may
revise or discontinue  the voluntary fee waivers and expense  reimbursements  at
any time.  The  Investment  Adviser  has agreed to waive fees  and/or  reimburse
expenses with respect to the Funds in order that total  expenses will not exceed
the following amounts:

Fund                            Class A     Class B
Cash Reserves Fund                 0.55%       1.30%
Bond Fund                          0.90%       1.65%
Balanced Fund                      1.10%       1.85%
High Income Fund                   1.00%       1.75%
Growth and Income Fund             1.00%       1.75%
Capital Appreciation Fund          1.20%       1.95%
International Stock Fund           1.60%       2.35%

For the period June 1, 1998 through October 31, 1998, the Investment Adviser has
also agreed to waive its 0.50% management fee on the Bond Fund.

For the period from commencement of fund operations on December 29, 1997 through
April 30, 1998, the adviser reimbursed expenses of $66,377 for the Cash Reserves
Fund,  $65,985 for the Bond Fund, $65,274 for the Balanced Fund, $66,210 for the
High  Income  Fund,  $63,540  for the Growth and Income  Fund,  $64,764  for the
Capital Appreciation Fund, and $95,627 for the International Stock Fund.

Any  reimbursements  made by the  Investment  Adviser  to a Fund are  subject to
repayment by the Fund within the subsequent  eighteen months, to the extent that
the fund is able to make the repayment within its expense cap.

The Trust and First Data Investor Services Group, Inc. ("First Data"),  which is
a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Data Corporation, are parties to an agreement
under which First Data  provides  administration  services for a fee  calculated
daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 0.15% of the first $500 million of
the combined  average daily net assets and 0.12% of the next $500 million of the
combined  average  daily net assets and 0.09% of the combined  average daily net
assets  over $1  billion.  Currently,  at April 30,  1998,  the Funds are at the
minimum of $3,500 per Fund,  per Class,  per month  until  aggregate  net assets
reach $392 million.

In  addition,  First  Data  also  provides  certain  fund  accounting,   custody
administration   and   transfer   agency   services   pursuant  to  certain  fee
arrangements.  Pursuant to such fee  arrangements,  First Data  compensates  the
Trust's  custodian bank, State Street,  for its services in addition to the fees
First Data receives.

CUNA  Brokerage  Services,  Inc. (CUNA  Brokerage)  serves as distributor of the
Funds.  The Trust adopted  Distribution  Plans (the "Plans") with respect to the
Trust's  Class A and Class B shares  pursuant  to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act.
Under the Plans,  the Trust will pay service fees for Class A and Class B shares
at  an  aggregate  annual  rate  of  0.25%  of  each  Fund's  daily  net  assets
attributable  to the  respective  class  of  shares.  The  Trust  will  also pay
distribution  fees for Class B shares at an  aggregate  annual  rate of 0.75% of
each Fund's daily net assets attributable to Class B. The distribution fees will
be used to reimburse CUNA Brokerage for its  distribution  expenses with respect
to Class B shares  only,  including  but not limited to: (1) initial and ongoing
sales  compensation  to Selling  Brokers and others  engaged in the sale of Fund
shares, (2) marketing,  promotional and overhead expenses incurred in connection
with the distribution of Fund shares,  and (3) interest expenses on unreimbursed
distribution  expenses.  The  service  fees will be used to  compensate  Selling
Brokers and others for providing  personal and account  maintenance  services to
shareholders.

Certain  officers and trustees of the Funds are also officers of the Trust.  The
Funds do not compensate its officers or affiliated trustees. Effective September
4, 1997, the Trust pays each  unaffiliated  trustee $1,000 per Board of Trustees
meeting attended.

4. Dividends from Net Investment Income and Distributions of Capital Gains
With  respect to the Cash  Reserves  Fund,  Bond  Fund,  and High  Income  Fund,
dividends from net  investment  income are declared daily and net realized gains
from investment transactions,  if any, are distributed to shareholders annually.
The Balanced Fund declares  dividends from net investment income monthly and net
realized  gains  from  investment  transactions,  if  any,  are  distributed  to
shareholders  annually.  The Growth and Income Fund declares  dividends from net
investment income quarterly and net realized gains from investment transactions,
if any, are distributed to shareholders  annually. The Capital Appreciation Fund
and the  International  Stock Fund declare  dividends from net investment income
annually  and net  realized  gains from  investment  transactions,  if any,  are
distributed to shareholders annually.

5. Securities Transactions
For the period from commencement of fund operations on December 29, 1997 through
April  30,  1998,  aggregate  cost of  purchases  and  proceeds  from  sales  of
securities,  other than short-term  investments and futures  contracts,  were as
follows:

                          U.S. Government             Other Investment
                           Securities                   Securities

Bond                   $2,016,141   $1,609,836    $3,296,442     $513,771
Balanced                1,208,516      700,078     4,631,459      276,005
High Income                  --           --         774,183    1,326,181
Growth & Income              --           --       9,245,540       95,351
Capital Appreciation         --           --       6,210,361      100,749
International Stock          --           --      24,445,950    5,261,865

At April 30,1998, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and
net unrealized  appreciation  (depreciation) for all securities as computed on a
federal income tax basis for each fund were as follows:

Fund                     Appreciation  (Depreciation)       Net
Bond                         $6,372     $(18,230)        $(11,858)
Balanced                    336,157      (20,396)         315,761

Growth & Income             839,459      (87,356)         752,103
Capital Appreciation        732,793      (66,803)         665,990
International Stock       2,655,241      (39,908)       2,615,333

6. Foreign Securities
Each Fund may invest in foreign  securities,  although only the High Income Fund
and International  Stock Fund anticipate having significant  investments in such
securities. The International Stock Fund may invest all of its assets in foreign
securities  and the High  Income  Fund may  invest  up to half of its  assets in
foreign  securities.  No fund will concentrate its investments in any particular
foreign country.

Foreign securities means securities that are: (1) issued by companies  organized
outside the U.S. or whose  principal  operations are outside the U.S.  ("foreign
issuers"),   (2)   issued  by  foreign   governments   or  their   agencies   or
instrumentalities  (also "foreign issuers"),  (3) principally traded outside the
U.S.,  or  (4)  quoted  or  denominated  in  a  foreign  currency   ("non-dollar
securities").  Foreign securities include ADR's, EDR's, GDR's, and foreign money
market securities.

7. Financial Instruments
Investing in certain  financial  instruments  including forward foreign currency
contracts and futures  contracts  involves risk other than that reflected in the
Statement of Assets and  Liabilities.  Risk  associated  with these  instruments
include  potential  for an imperfect  correlation  between the  movements in the
prices of instruments  and the prices of the underlying  securities and interest
rates,  an  illiquid  secondary  market  for the  instruments  or  inability  of
counterparties  to perform under the terms of the contracts,  and changes in the
value of foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.  The High Income Fund and
International  Stock Fund enter into these contracts  primarily to protect these
Funds from adverse currency movement.

8. Concentration of Risk
The High Income Fund invests in securities  offering  high current  income which
generally will be in the lower rating categories of recognized  ratings agencies
(so-called "junk bonds").  These securities  generally  involve more credit risk
than securities in the higher rating categories. In addition, the trading market
for high yield  securities  may be  relatively  less  liquid than the market for
higher-rated  securities.  The Funds use of leverage also increases  exposure to
capital risk.

9. Shares of Beneficial Interest
Each fund is  authorized  to issue an unlimited  number of shares of  beneficial
interest with no par value.  Each Fund  currently  offers two classes of shares,
Class A and Class B. At April 30,  1998,  investments  in shares of the Funds by
affiliates were as follows:

                                CUNA Mutual        CUNA Mutual        CUMIS
