Dear MMA Praxis Shareholders:
 
PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
 
The first six months of 1998 have presented MMA Praxis mutual fund managers
with major challenges, opportunities and some frustration. The MMA Praxis
Intermediate Income Fund generated a total return of 3.5%* (without load),
which is very close to its benchmark target, the Lehman Aggregate Index, which
returned 3.9%.
 
The MMA Praxis International Fund turned in a strong six-month total return of
23.9%* (without load), significantly outpacing the MSCI EAFE Index average
performance of 15.9%. This success has brought increased exposure and
recognition to the MMA Praxis fund family. We extend our congratulations to
the portfolio manager, Tina Oechsle-Vasconcelles, for this fund's fine
performance.
 
The MMA Praxis Growth Fund experienced a relatively strong performance through
the first four months of this year before encountering market turbulence. At
the 1998 halfway point, the Growth Fund had returned 5.5%* (without load) to
its shareholders, as compared to it's benchmark peer, the S & P 500 Index,
which returned 12.3%.
 
Please refer to the following pages for comments from each of the three
portfolio managers regarding the six-month performance of their respective
funds. You also are encouraged to spend time reading the report from Mark
Regier, MMA's SRI Research and Advocacy Coordinator for an update on those
activities related to MMA's values-based investing.
 
PREPARING TO SURVIVE MARKET VOLATILITY
 
Financial markets have taken investors on a wild ride during the first six
months in 1998. One day stocks fall dramatically, only to surge ahead the
following day. And the bond market has joined in, as uncertainty over economic
growth, inflation and interest rates in the U.S. have caused bond prices to
fluctuate substantially in the last several months.
 
Today's markets are especially unnerving, given the fact the past few years
have been uncharacteristically calm. This was especially true in 1996 and 1997
for stocks, as this asset class grew sharply with unusually little volatility.
But considering what is driving these swings, it may be that the ride has just
begun.
 
What causes market volatility? Any number of events can cause the markets to
fluctuate. And it's not always clear how financial markets will react to
short-term events. For example, not too long ago, the government announced
that 705,000 new jobs had been created in a particular month. This good news--
jobs created during a period of modest economic growth--was promptly greeted
by a precipitous 171 point drop in the Dow and a 3.5% drop in the average
price of bonds.
 
Overall, today's market volatility has been largely attributed to political
uncertainties, economic concerns (the Asian currency crisis and how this might
affect the American economy) and the prospect of lower corporate profits.
Based on these factors, it appears that market volatility may be with us for
some time to come.

FOUR WAYS TO HELP SURVIVE MARKET FLUCTUATIONS
 
What steps can you take to keep calm and remain on track with your financial
plan during periods of market volatility?
 
  1. Maintain a long-term view. One of the biggest dangers to a financial
  plan is focusing on short-term market movements. Short-term volatility
  should be irrelevant to people with a 5-, 10- or 20-year investment time
  horizon. Why? The following graph shows that historically, the longer you
  invest, the more likely that you may achieve positive results.

Small Stocks are represented by the CRSP6-8 Index. Large Stocks are represented 
by the S&P 500 Index from 1977 to 1997. Intermediate Term Government Bonds from 
1987 to 1997 are based on the Wall Street Journal prices. The 1977 to 1987 
returning are based on the CRSP Government Bond File. T-Bills are based on the 
U.S. 30-day Treasury bill.

  2. Properly diversify. Various investments can perform differently under
  similar circumstances. For example, certain conditions may cause stocks in
  general to go up while bonds go down. Additionally, a well diversified
  portfolio of international stocks has a low correlation with the U.S. stock
  market. Thus, one can help temper overall portfolio volatility by
  diversifying among a variety of investments. The varied performance of the
  three MMA Praxis Mutual Funds in the first six months of 1998 certainly
  supports this strategy.
 
  3. Avoid investment paralysis. When the market is falling, it's tempting to
  stop adding to your investments. But historically, many stock market gains
  have happened in quick, short bursts. As a result, you may be left on the
  sidelines when the market roars forward.
 
  If you are hesitant to invest when the market appears weak, consider this
  hypothetical example. According to Ibbotson, if you had invested one dollar
  at the end of 1925, and remained fully invested in the S&P 500 Index
  through the years, your one dollar would have grown to $1,828.00 by the end
  of 1997. However, if a market timing portfolio had switched out of the S&P
  500 Index in the 35 best returning months since 1925, the original one
  dollar investment would be worth only $16.67. This example highlights the
  risk associated with an attempt to try to predict which asset classes will
  be the best performing.

  4. Schedule a check-up. If a 100-point stock market drop, sudden jump in
  interest rates or turbulence in the Japanese stock market makes you
  nervous, schedule a portfolio check-up with your financial advisor. He or
  she can review your current portfolio, investment goals, risk tolerance and
  timeframe to see if adjustments are needed. Understanding your investment
  portfolio and feeling comfortable with market fluctuations can go a long
  way toward helping you achieve your financial goals.
 
CONCLUSION
 
The MMA Praxis family of funds is now 4 1/2 years old. Assets have grown to
over $192 million, which represents investments from nearly 16,000
shareholders. We recognize that many of you have chosen the MMA Praxis family
of funds to assist you in planning for important personal or family financial
goals. We applaud your commitment to engage in MMA's values-based investing.
 
We will continue to work hard at generating competitive returns by using our
value investment style--focusing on companies that are currently undervalued
by the market. These are companies that are in a temporary slump, possess
hidden assets or are in mature industries unappreciated by Wall Street. Value-
style investing requires patience, however, as investors may occasionally have
to wait a seemingly interminable period of time for the market to recognize a
company's intrinsic value.

MMA PRAXIS INTERMEDIATE INCOME FUND
 
Interest rates were in a tight range for most of the quarter. In June, rates
finally broke to new lows as Asian "flight to safety" buying pushed the 10-
year Treasury through the Fed funds rate.
 
The total return for the fund was 3.5%* (without load) for the first half of
1998. The Lehman Aggregate Index was up 3.9%. The Lipper Intermediate
Investment Grade Bond Fund Average was up 3.6%.
 
Our performance mirrored both benchmarks until mid-June when we shortened our
maturities because we believed the rally was over. Unfortunately, Asian
concerns hit again. We made some adjustments to extend our portfolio again and
started to recover. If we do get a correction, we expect to recover our lost
ground.
 
Interest rates represent a real dilemma with Asian bond buying for currency
reasons driving Treasury rates lower at the same time that a strong domestic
economy argues for higher rates. Asia will clearly slow the U.S. economy which
may push rates even lower. At the same time, monetary policy is already fairly
loose, which argues against a reduction in rates. This will force us to be
nimble to adjust to changing market perceptions.

     The Lehman Aggregate Bond Index includes fixed rate debt
     issues rated investment grade or higher by Moody's
     Investor's Service, Standard and Poor's(R) Corporation, or
     Fitch Investor's Service with at least one year to maturity.
     The Lipper Intermediate Investment Grade Bond Fund Index
     includes funds that invests at least 65% of its assets in
     investment grade debt issues (rated in top four grades) with
     dollar-weighted average maturities of five to ten years.
     These indexes are for illustrative purposes only and do not
     reflect the deduction of expenses associated with a mutual
     fund, such as investment management and fund accounting
     fees. The fund's performance reflects the deduction of these
     value-added services. The total return set forth reflects a
     waiver of a portion of the fund's advisory or administrative
     fees. In such instances, and without waiver of fees, total
     return would have been lower.
 
We continue to maintain a very high AA2 credit quality. This is higher than we
have been previously and is the result of adding more government agencies to
help enhance our liquidity and reduce the risk of spread widening in corporate
bonds.
 
From a social investment perspective, we added several mortgage pools to our
portfolio. In the corporate portion of our portfolio, we added Boston
Scientific (1.3% of net assets), a maker of medical devices particularly for
use in the cardiology field.

MMA PRAXIS INTERMEDIATE INCOME FUND (CONTINUED)
Currently, our duration is 4.6 versus 4.6 for the Lehman Aggregate Index. This
means that a 1.0% rise or fall in interest rates will cause the fund to rise
or fall 4.6%.
 
Going forward, we will continue to search out fixed income opportunities that
we believe will add financial and social return to your investment.
 
In this time of extended valuation in the stock markets, we are reminded of
the importance of a well-diversified portfolio to help balance the risks of
investing. For many shareholders, an investment in MMA Praxis Intermediate
Income Fund may be an important part of this strategy.

MMA PRAXIS GROWTH FUND
 
Through April of this year, the MMA Praxis Growth Fund had good performance at
12.9%* (without load), relative to the Lipper Growth and Income Fund Average,
at 12.0%, and was only slightly behind its primary benchmark, the S&P 500
Index return of 15.1%. However, during the months of May and June 1998, there
was a substantial drop in the value of the MMA Praxis Growth Fund and poor
relative performance to the S&P 500 Index. The six-month return for the Growth
Fund was 5.5%* (without load) as compared to the S&P 500 Index's return of
12.3%. I know this may be causing some concern and questions to you as
shareholders.
 
Before I get into the fund specifics, I want to reassure each of you that our
value-oriented management style, our portfolio management and valuation
methodology has not changed. We continue to use the same sound management
techniques today that we used when the fund began in 1994. These are the same
techniques that provided good year-to-date performance through May 1, 1998. I
will be the first to admit that I have been disappointed with the performance
for the last several months. At the same time, I will also be the first to say
I believe the portfolio is structured with undervalued stocks that will be
recognized by the broader market sometime in the future.

FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO SHORT-TERM UNDERPERFORMANCE
 
First of all, there was no one single event or cause that we can point our
finger to for the recent performance. There have been a series of unrelated
events that hindered the return. We do know that each of the following has
contributed to the problems of the last several months: large company
dominance in the market, oil price declines, unforeseen company stories and
mergers and acquisitions.

LARGE COMPANY DOMINANCE
 
In our view, there has certainly been a lot of damage done to individual
stocks in the small- and mid-sized company segment of the market over the last
several months. At the same time, the large stocks held their performance
fairly well. One way to quantify this point is by taking a look at the indexes
for the months of May and June 1998. The S&P 100 Index** (the largest
component) was up 2.3% while the S&P 400 MidCap Index** was down 3.9%, and the
Russell 2000 Index**, a measurement of small cap stock performance, was down
5.1%. These are significant variations in performance for a short period of
time. We also know that as of June 30, 1998, over 52.0% of all stocks in the
S&P 500 Index lagged the index return by more than 15.0% for the past 12
months./1/ What this is telling us is that today's stock market performance is
being overwhelmingly influenced by a relative small group of stocks with huge
market capitalizations.
 
As we have written on several occasions, we believe the valuations are more
attractive in a select group of mid- to small-sized companies. Because of the
extended valuations of large company stocks, we intentionally lowered the
average cap size of the portfolio over the last 18 months. Through our stock
selection and sector weightings, we were able to keep pace with the overall
large cap indexes until May 1998. We still believe this is the direction to
take the portfolio.
 
The weighted average cap size of the MMA Praxis Growth Fund is approximately
$18 billion. The weighted average cap size of the S&P 500 Index is more than
$60 billion./2/ On July 7, 1998, the largest U.S.-based company, General
Electric, reached a market capitalization of $300 billion./2/ The largest
companies (based on capitalization) in the fund portfolio include Merck at
$159 billion (1.7% of net assets), Johnson & Johnson at $99 billion (1.3% of
net assets) and Cisco Systems at $96 billion (1.1% of net assets). Some of the
smaller names in the portfolio include Wabash National Corp. at $575 million
(2.4% of net assets), Dionex Corp. at $575 million (1.3% of net assets) and
Read-Rite Corp. at $414 million (0.5% of net assets).
 
As you can see, the capitalization size factor did play a critical role in the
fund's underperformance. However, we will continue to avoid those companies
whose values are extended and will seek out companies whose fundamentals meet
our proper investment criteria. We will buy the largest of the blue chip
companies at some point but not until they are more reasonably priced.
 
OIL DRILLING AND OIL SERVICE STOCKS--WE WERE EARLY
 
Oil prices peaked in the fall of 1997 at $18.50 per barrel. Today, oil is
under $13.00 per barrel. Oil drilling and service stocks began declining in
price and underperformed the broad market as oil prices began to slide. There
was also a question as to oversupply as demand weakened. The oil drilling and
services group has underperformed the broad market by 48.0% for the last nine
months./2/
 
The majority of our purchases in this sector of the market were made during
the second quarter of 1998. And while the prices were significantly below peak
prices of last fall, they underperformed the broader market considerably in
April and May. As we stand today, we believe the multiple compression that has
taken place among the oil drillers, such as R&B Falcon and Ensco, and the oil
services companies such as Schlumberger and Petroleum Geo Services, has run
its course. The prices today represent attractive risk-reward opportunities
going forward.
 
We also believe the earnings of these companies will not be impacted to the
extent that the stock prices have fallen. While it is understood that the
recent oil price declines have shifted pricing leverage away from the
contractors and to the major oil companies in the short-term, we also know the
oil companies continue their struggle to increase oil reserves and production.
They will continue to explore and drill for oil at these price levels. Many of
the companies we hold have long-term contracts to support the earnings stream.
We also believe the analysis that oil will recover in

price by year-end as supply and demand become balanced once again. Oil
company, drilling and oil service stocks represent about 13.0% of the growth
fund portfolio as of June 30, 1998.
 
COMPANY STORIES
 
A number of companies declined due to specific, unique issues related directly
to the company. Here are several examples:
 
 . MCN ENERGY GROUP (2.1% of net assets) is a diversified gas utility company
  in Michigan. This company was considered well managed and progressive as it
  enhanced earnings for shareholders. The company has been a consistent grower
  and has not had a down earnings report in many years. Toward the end of
  June, the company announced it was writing off a portion of its oil and gas
  exploration business and would have lower earnings for 1998 than a year
  earlier. The stock price dropped 19.0% on the announcement. Today, this
  company has a dividend yield of 4.3% and is selling at one of the lowest
  valuations of its group.
 
 . IONICS (1.9% of net assets) declined due to its Asian exposure. Ionics
  provides water purification plants for municipalities and manufacturing
  facilities. The company provides water purification used in semiconductor
  production. Because of the uncertainty in the technology sector at this
  time, customers are delaying orders. Ionics indicated it would not achieve
  the revenue growth that was expected for the quarter. The stock declined
  17%.
 
 . THOMAS AND BETTS AND FASTENAL CO. (1.0% of net assets) declined due to
  anticipated weakness in auto part sales to General Motors due to the strike.
 
We believe that what has happened to a number of companies in the portfolio is
only temporary. These companies will continue to grow and recover from these
isolated events. We believe stock prices also will recover from their current
depressed prices.
 
MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS
 
A number of the companies in the portfolio were part of the mega merger and
acquisition deals that took place in the second quarter. Investors have been
quite skeptical of the prices paid to put these deals together. Since the
deals have been announced stock prices have declined. For example, we hold SBC
Communications (2.9% of net assets) in the portfolio. The company announced it
was merging with Ameritech. This was a $62 billion deal announced in May. The
SBC stock declined 14.0% over the next few days after the deal was announced.
 
Norwest and Wells Fargo announced a merger of the two banks. We owned both of
these banks in the portfolio. Both stocks declined on the announcement.
 
Under our normal financial analysis, we try to buy financially strong
companies for the portfolio. This has not been to our advantage lately because
of the acquisition activity. The strong companies have been announcing
numerous acquisitions that are at least initially frowned upon by investors.
Again, we believe these are temporary declines in stock prices due to short-
term dilution of earnings.
 
FINAL REMARKS
 
As we self-examine our work, we continue to ask questions like what has
changed? Are we doing something different? What are we missing? The answers
come out the same. We will continue to do the same things we have done as
portfolio managers for the last 15 years, and for the last 4 1/2 years with
the fund. We believe the value approach we have been using will come back and
work for us some time in the future as it has in the past. We have experienced
similar temporary declines in the past. I wish I could state with all
certainty as to when the turnaround will happen. While I cannot predict the
future, I do believe we are closer to this move up than we were two months
ago.

The MMA Praxis International Fund outperformed its benchmark for the first
half of 1998. It was up 23.9%* (without load) compared to the MSCI EAFE Index
which was up 15.9% (net dividends reinvested). Performance was positively
impacted by our overweight positions in European markets like France, Italy,
Spain and the Netherlands. The portfolio also benefited from it being
underweight in hard hit Asian markets like Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore and
Malaysia. We believe stock selection overall added significantly to
performance. During the first half of 1998, the MSCI Europe Index (up 26.5% in
U.S. dollar terms) outperformed the MSCI Pacific Index (down 5.9%).
 
Europe continued its strong performance as bond yields trended further
downwards as inflation expectations were dampened by the Asian crisis and as
corporate profits exceeded consensus expectations. Of the major European
markets, Spain (up 43.9%), France (up 38.7%), Germany (up 36.5%) and Italy (up
33.2%) were the strongest markets. The UK market (up 15.8%) lagged continental
Europe on the view that further interest rate increases will be needed to slow
down the domestic economy while the export sector suffered from the negative
impact from strong sterling.

     International investing involves increased risk and

In Asia, all markets suffered as the Asian crisis intensified. Despite a
slight rally earlier in the year on hopes that the worst was over, it became
evident as the year progressed that the IMF wasn't going to make everything
right and that the work-out process would take much longer than the market was
expecting. Japan has been the relative outperformer in the region (down 2.6%)
while Malaysia (down 29.6%), Singapore (down 31.0%) and Hong Kong (down 26.1%)
all were down significantly. We believe the region is dependent on the
Japanese economy

recovering, and there are still no signs that the government is taking the
necessary measures to stimulate the economy. Although the Japanese have
announced several fiscal stimulus packages and a bank bailout plan, and have
tried to reverse the direction of the weakening yen with concerted
intervention, the measures are just not enough to stimulate the economy and
don't have the political support to gain credibility by the market. As a
result, the yen continued to weaken during the first half of the year, to a
low of 147 against the dollar in mid-June. At these yen levels, the Chinese
started to make noises that if the yen weakened any further they might have to
devalue after all. If the Chinese would devalue, there would most likely be
another round of currency devaluations in the region, which would worsen the
outlook further. It was then that a full-scale intervention occurred where the
U.S. started to buy yen. This intervention brought the dollar back down to
below 140 but it was short-lived. When the market heard that, U.S. Treasury
Secretary Rubin was against the timing of the intervention because it was very
politically motivated ahead of President Clinton's trip to China and also that
the Japanese failed to follow it up with some strong policy measures, the yen
sold off again. In our view, the intervention was a significant event because
it showed how concerned the U.S. is about the crisis in the region and what a
complicated balancing act it is.
 
The emerging markets suffered throughout the year from political and economic
uncertainty. For the first half of 1998, the MSCI Emerging markets index was
down 19.1% in US dollar terms. The MSCI Emerging Asia index was down 20.2%
compared to the MSCI Emerging Latin America index, which was down 21.1%.
 
Stock selection added value during the period and was especially good in
Europe. In France, Suez Lyonnaise (up 49.4% in local currency terms, 3.3% of
net assets) and Renault (up 103.1%, 4.5% of net assets) added value; in
Germany, Mannesmann (up 104.1%, 3.1% of net assets) and Volkswagen (up 75.9%,
2.1% of net assets) significantly outperformed; in the Netherlands, our
holdings in VNU (up 29.2%, 2.9% of net assets) and KPN (up 57.2%, 2.1% of net
assets) were strong outperformers. In Switzerland, Nestle (up 48.3%, 3.3% of
net assets) soared and in the UK Vodafone (up 73.2%, 3.9% of net assets)
continued to be re-rated. In Japan, the portfolio's overweight exposure to
exporters with dollar exposure was additive to performance; Murata (up 35.3%,
1.0% of net assets), Pioneer Electronic (up 31.8%, 1.2% of net assets) and MEI
(up 16.8%, 1.7% of net assets).
 
Looking forward, we expect the same trends to continue with the better
fundamentals and visibility in earnings in Europe outweighing the negative
economic climate and poor policy initiatives in Asia. Value is emerging in
Asia and we continue to look for cheap stocks that may benefit from a positive
fundamental story. However, we believe the Asian crisis is far from over and
we expect to see further downside in the region's equity markets and
currencies. Our focus will be on Japan and what they will do to stimulate the
economy. If they do nothing credible, the yen may weaken further and put even
more pressure on the Chinese to devalue, which could set off another round of
devaluations in the region. The portfolio is currently heavily overweighted in
continental Europe specifically in France, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands.
In these markets, we believe the top down and bottom up picture is very
favorable.

MMA PRAXIS SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTING UPDATE
 
Dear Shareholders:
 
MMA's effort to significantly increase its involvement with socially
responsible investing (SRI) activities continues. And while big changes never
happen quickly enough, we are pleased with the progress that is being made on
aspects of our SRI work--progress that is at once deeply theoretical and
strategic as well as more practical and productive.
 
A CHANGE TOWARD THE POSITIVE
 
One of the theoretical changes we continue to work at is a shift of emphasis
in our screening efforts from a focus on negative screens to a focus on
positive screens. Our hope is to strengthen our involvement with companies
involved in "life-giving" or "life-enhancing" industries and activities. We
have just begun a process of reviewing and revising our selection guidelines
to reflect this positive emphasis. And while such an effort requires a
different approach to screening activity, we feel certain this will not result
in the inclusion of companies that have traditionally been excluded from the
MMA Praxis family of funds. Tobacco, alcohol, gambling, military contracting
and abortion products simply do not constitute "life-giving" activities from
our perspective.
 
TAKING ACTION
 
We've taken action in a number of areas over the past six months that
demonstrate MMA's commitment to socially responsible investing. In light of
continuing political and activist pressures, both Royal Dutch Shell and Total
SA were removed from the MMA Praxis International Fund portfolio due to their
dismal response to human rights concerns in Nigeria and Burma/Myanmar
respectively. In addition, our fund managers took action to make all MMA
Praxis Mutual Funds nuclear-free. This did not cause a particularly
significant shift in our holdings, but represents a commitment we feel is
consistent with MMA's understanding of sound stewardship.
 
In February, I traveled to Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, to participate in a dialogue
between concerned institutional investors and a high-level management
delegation from Johnson & Johnson (1.3% of net assets). Our discussion
centered on our concerns regarding sustainable wages in Johnson & Johnson's
maquiladora* plants in Mexico. Last month, during a trip to Thailand, I was
able to visit with field workers assisting refugees fleeing Burma/Myanmar and
hear their concerns about corporate involvement with the country's oppressive
government. These on-site visits are a growing edge of MMA's SRI work. And,
though the fruits of such labor are slow to mature, we remain committed to
doing more in the years ahead to help build fresh perspectives on complex
international SRI issues and to carry our message of responsible, values-based
investing to corporate leaders.
 
A VISION FOR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT INVESTING
 
Work continues in earnest on our plans to create an intentional, structured
program to channel a portion of MMA investments to the economic growth and
community development of underserved populations of this country and around
the world. To this end, we adopted a "vision document" to guide the
development of this project. This document declared that our new CDI program
will offer:
 
 . a structure of integrity, incorporating both a prophetic voice and wise
  management,
 . a unique approach growing from MMA's distinctive strengths,
 . a clear reflection of Anabaptist and Christian stewardship values,
 . a company-wide commitment, offering various avenues of involvement,
 . an emphasis of conviction over return,
 . a "secure" management philosophy,
 . an opportunity for connection with investors/communities we serve, and
 . a creative and synergistic model.

MMA PRAXIS SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTING UPDATE (CONTINUED)
We think this program will provide exciting opportunities for MMA Praxis
shareholders and can significantly increase the social return of our funds.
Look for more news on our Community Development Program in the MMA Praxis
annual report early in 1999.
 
FAITH FIRST
 
Why be concerned about the responsible or ethical quality of your investments?
This is an important question for MMA and one worthy of reflection by
individual MMA Praxis investors. Many SRI proponents will tell you it's simply
the right thing to do. Others may say it is a great opportunity to do good
while earning healthy returns. Recently, some have claimed that SRI is also
the wise thing to do--that companies who behave well are better positioned to
perform well in the long run. While we find all these reasons to be valid and
persuasive, at MMA we feel there is a deeper motivation for considering
carefully the investment of your financial resources.
 
MMA believes that a true understanding of Christian discipleship calls us to
consider the impact our activities have on the people, communities, and
creation around us. Just like the way you treat strangers and neighbors, how
you conduct local business, and the care you give to the environment every
day--your investment decisions should reflect the values you hold most sacred.
 
At MMA, we are working to better understand and bring into practice the
ethical and theological underpinnings that motivate our work as an
historically Anabaptist, Christian organization committed to good stewardship.
MMA is committed to modeling, as best it can, a deep commitment to centered,
Christian values and a stewardship investing perspective. We know that many of
our investors value the religious basis for MMA's investment philosophy and we
invite you to watch for more information on this exploration effort. We also
are aware that some select the MMA Praxis fund family for a variety of other,
non-religious reasons. Regardless of your motivation, we are glad you have
chosen to invest with us.
 
We hope that the full range of our research and advocacy activities adequately
reflect our desire to provide you with an honest, active, and deeply rooted
approach to values-based, socially responsible investing--one that meshes well
with many of the values you hold.

 organization and the date of commencement of operations the Funds had no
 operations other than those relating to organizational matters, including
 the issuance on December 28, 1993 of 5,000 shares of the Intermediate Income
 Fund and 5,000 shares of the Growth Fund at $10.00 per share, also the
 issuance on April 1, 1997 of 5,000 shares of the International Fund at
 $10.00 per share to the Mennonite Mutual Aid Association.
 
 The investment objective of the Intermediate Income Fund is to seek current
 income. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest substantially
 all, but in no event less than 65% of its total assets in fixed income
 securities. The investment objective of the Growth Fund is to seek capital
 appreciation. The Fund invests primarily in undervalued securities of medium
 to large capitalization companies. The investment objective of the
 International Fund is capital appreciation. Current income is a secondary
 objective. This Fund will invest at least 65% of the value of its total
 assets in equity securities of foreign companies.
 
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
 The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
 the Company in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are
 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation
 of financial statements requires management to make estimates and
 assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at
 the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
 expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
  SECURITIES VALUATION:
 
  Securities are valued at market values determined on the basis of the
  latest available bid prices in the principal market (closing sales prices
  if the principal market is an exchange) in which such securities are
  normally traded. Investments in investment companies are valued at their
  respective net asset values as reported by such companies. The differences
  between the cost and market values of investments are reflected as either
  unrealized appreciation or depreciation. The Funds use various independent
  pricing services to value most of their investments. If market quotations
  are not available, the securities will be valued by a method which the
  Board of Trustees believes accurately reflects fair value.
 
  SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME:
 
  Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains or losses
  realized on sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified
  cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds. Interest income
  is recognized on the accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the pro
  rata amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Dividend income is
  recorded on the ex-dividend date.

                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
  FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION:
 
  The market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities of
  the International Fund denominated in foreign currencies are translated
  into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate at the close of each
  business day. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and
  expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars based at the exchange
  rate on the date of the transaction.
 
  The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations
  resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the
  fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held.
  Such fluctuations are included with the net realized/unrealized gain
  (loss) from investments.
 
  Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales
  and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies,
  currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates
  on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of
  dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's
  books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or
  paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes
  in the value of assets and liabilities including investments in securities
  at fiscal year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.
 
  FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS:
 
  The International Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange
  contracts for the purchase or sale of specific foreign currencies at a
  fixed price on a future date. Risks may arise upon entering these
  contracts for the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms
  of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a
  foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The International Fund will
  enter into forward contracts as a hedge against specific transactions or
  portfolio positions to protect against adverse currency movements. The
  forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily
  exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are
  recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until the contract
  settlement date, at which time the International Fund records a realized
  gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at
  the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
 
  DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS:
 
  Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid monthly for the
  Intermediate Income Fund and declared and paid quarterly for the Growth
  Fund. Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid twice a
  year for the International Fund. Distributable net realized capital gains,
  if any, are declared and distributed at least annually.
 
  Dividends from net investment income and from net realized capital gains
  are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ
  from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are
  primarily due to differing treatments of mortgage-backed securities,
  expiring capital loss carry-forwards and deferrals of certain losses.
 
  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
 
  It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated
  investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain
  investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal
  Revenue

  Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized
  capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all,
  Federal income taxes.
 
  ORGANIZATION COSTS:
 
  Costs incurred by the Company in connection with its organization and
  registration of shares have been deferred and are amortized using the
  straight-line method over a period of five years from the commencement of
  the public offering of shares of the Funds. In the event that any of the
  initial shares of the Funds are redeemed during the amortization period by
  any holder thereof, the redemption proceeds will be reduced by any
  unamortized organizational expenses of the Company in the same proportion
  as the number of said shares of the Fund being redeemed bears to the
  number of initial shares of that Fund that are outstanding at time of
  redemption.
 
  OTHER:
 
  Each Fund maintains a cash balance with its custodian and receives a
  reduction of their custody fees and expenses for the amounts of interest
  earned on such uninvested cash balance. For financial reporting purposes
  for the six months ended June 30, 1998, custodian fees and expenses paid
  by third parties were increased by $1,712 and $2,835 for the Intermediate
  Income Fund and the Growth Fund, respectively. There was no effect on net
  investment income. The Funds could have invested such cash amounts in an
  income producing asset if they had not agreed to a reduction of fees or
  expenses under the expense offset arrangement with their custodian.
 
  Expenses that are directly related to one of the Funds are charged
  directly to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Company are
  prorated to the Funds on the basis of relative net assets.
 
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES:
