DEAR                                                       AUGUST 1998
SHAREHOLDER:

I want to discuss three major topics with you in this letter:
         1) Catholic Values investing;
         2) Fund performance for the six months ended 6/30/98; and
         3) A new money market fund.

The Aquinas Funds are socially responsible mutual funds with a particular
interest in Catholic Values. We are judged by the family values we support as
well as our market performance.  If a particular security seems out of place in
our portfolio, investors and prospective investors understandably want to know
why.  The answer to this question is simple.  Stock ownership provides us with a
powerful voice - a right to be heard and petition for change.  Without stock
ownership most companies pay little, if any attention to you. On the other hand,
we can name many companies that are better off today because they listened to
their shareholders.


Like other mutual funds, when we believe a company has lost the financial
potential to meet our paramount investment criterion, we normally sell all of
our shares.  Occasionally, we continue to hold only enough shares to allow us to
file a shareholder proposal to correct problems that are in conflict with our
Catholic Values.  In order to have the best advantage (i.e., filing a
shareholder proposal) with a company, the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) rules state that we need to own shares of the company for one year.
Because we do not want to be considered simply a pest or corporate gadfly, we
try to hold more than the minimum shares unless the financial reward does not
represent responsible money management.  We used this strategy very effectively
with DISNEY on the issue of sweatshops and broadcast media standards.  We also
use this strategy with a few other companies that we expect to repurchase in the
future.

Our primary Catholic Values investment policies are based on the guidelines of
the National Conference of Catholic Bishops.  We do not debate the guidelines
with the Bishops and it is not our role to lobby the Bishops on behalf of
someone's personal agenda.  In addition, we work on a number of social justice
issues, which are of interest to a wide range of socially conscious investors.
These issues include the environment, sweatshops, pornography and violence in
the media, among others.

Interestingly, as we become increasingly successful financially, our success in
promoting Catholic Values also grows stronger.  The Aquinas Funds are listed on
pro-abortion Internet web sites as a major reason why the French abortion pill
(RU-486) has not been made available in the United States.  As an investor, you
can be proud of what your investment has enabled us to do. (Speaking of web
sites, if you use the Internet, The Aquinas Funds can be found at
www.aquinasfunds.com.)

As you know by now, the securities markets had three wonderful years in 1995,
1996 and 1997. In the first half of 1998, the market has resembled a roller
coaster track. There is concern about the Asian crisis, the year 2000 problems
with computers and computer chips and the ability of corporations to maintain
record earnings. Our investment philosophy remains steadfast despite these
concerns. We are long-term investors who are not swayed by the latest media
frenzy to create headlines to get your attention. The U.S. economy is still
solid with low inflation, low unemployment, a budget surplus and strong
corporate cash flow.

Our best performer was Aquinas Equity Growth with a return of 16.5% for the
first six months of the year. Our Balanced Fund had a return of 6.5% for the
same time period. Aquinas Equity Income returned a respectable 5.0% for the
first six months and Fixed Income had a return of 3.6%. The general stock market
has been led by the S&P 500; however, a closer look at that index reveals that
the top 100 stocks of the S&P 500 have led the charge and the other 400 stocks
in that index have done very little. This means that the market is being
influenced by a relatively small percentage of companies. In our opinion, this
lack of diversification will limit the growth of the S&P 500 in the future.

  TOTAL RETURNS              SIX     ONE       THREE YEAR      AVERAGE ANNUAL
  AS OF 6/30/97             MONTHS   YEAR    AVERAGE ANNUAL SINCE INCEPTION<F1>

  Aquinas Equity Growth      16.5%   32.7%        27.5%            19.7%
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Aquinas Balanced            6.5%   18.2%        17.1%            13.4%

  Aquinas Equity Income       5.0%   18.2%        22.3%            18.3%

  Aquinas Fixed Income        3.6%    9.4%         6.9%             6.1%
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<F1> Inception date: January 3, 1994. Returns shown include the reinvestment of
     dividends. Performance reflects fee waivers in effect. Absent fee waivers,
     total returns would be reduced. Past performance is not predictive of
     future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so
     that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the
     original cost.

Our portfolios are widely diversified and we do not take concentration risks. We
believe that this long-term view of investment alternatives will provide us with
consistent returns and reduce the volatility of downward movement as a sector of
the economy goes through a down cycle. Our range of Funds provides basic
investment styles and our multi-manager approach for each Fund allows us to
achieve our diversification objectives. We are proud that our Funds have
received favorable review by various organizations over the last four years. In
addition, we are pleased that we have been successful in providing a Catholic
voice and view to corporate directors, who may have left their social conscience
on the coat hook outside the boardroom door.

As stated in our April 1998 Prospectus, Aquinas has arranged to give you access
to a Money Market Fund that can be used in conjunction with your existing
Aquinas Funds account. You may set up an account through our Transfer Agent and
get immediate transfer and exchange privileges. Call 1-877-AQUINAS (toll-free)
and request a Money Market Fund Application and Prospectus.

Thank you for investing with us.

Sincerely,

/s/ Frank Rauscher

President and CEO

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
(UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION
The Aquinas Funds, Inc. was incorporated on October 20, 1993 as a Maryland
Corporation and is registered as a diversified open-end management investment
company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.  The Fixed Income, Equity
Income, Equity Growth and Balanced Funds (the "Funds") are separate, diversified
portfolios of The Aquinas Funds, Inc.  The Funds are managed by Aquinas
Investment Advisers, Inc. (the "Adviser") and commenced operations on January 3,
1994.

Costs incurred with the organization, initial registration and public offering
of shares aggregating $12,959 for each of the Fixed Income, Equity Income,
Equity Growth and Balanced Funds have been paid by the Funds.  These costs were
deferred and are being amortized over a period of not more than five years from
the Funds' commencement of operations.  The proceeds of any redemption of the
initial shares by the original shareholder or any transferee will be reduced by
a pro rata portion of any then unamortized deferred organizational expenses in
the same proportion as the number of initial shares being redeemed bears to the
number of initial shares outstanding at the time of such redemption.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements.  These
policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP").  The presentation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP
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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

a) Investment Valuation - Securities traded over-the-counter or on a national
securities exchange are valued on the basis of market value in their principal
and most representative market.  Securities where the principal and most
representative market is a national securities exchange are valued at the latest
reported sale price on such exchange.  Exchange-traded securities for which
there were no transactions are valued at the latest reported bid price.
Securities traded on only over-the-counter markets are valued at the latest bid
prices.  Debt securities (other than short-term obligations) are valued at
prices furnished by a pricing service, subject to review by the Funds' Adviser
and determination of the appropriate price whenever a furnished price is
significantly different from the previous day's furnished price.  Short-term
obligations (maturing within 60 days) are valued on an amortized cost basis,
which approximates value. Securities for which quotations are not readily
available and other assets are valued at fair value as determined in good faith
by the Adviser under the supervision of the Board of Directors.

b) Delayed Delivery Transactions - The Funds may purchase or sell securities on
a when-issued or forward commitment basis.  Payment and delivery may take place
a month or more after the date of the transaction.  The price of the underlying
securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are
fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated.  Losses may arise due to
changes in the market value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty
does not perform under the contract.

c) Federal Income Taxes _ No provision for federal income taxes has been made
since the Funds have complied to date with the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code available to regulated investment companies and intend to continue
to so comply in future years.

AQUINAS FUNDS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
d) Distributions to Shareholders - All of the Funds except the Fixed Income Fund
pay dividends of net investment income quarterly.  The Fixed Income Fund pays
dividends of net investment income monthly.  Distributions of net realized
capital gains, if any, will be declared at least annually.  Distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income
or net realized gains may differ from the characterization for federal income
tax purposes due to differences in the recognition of income, expense or gain
items for financial statement and tax purposes.  Where appropriate,
reclassifications between net asset accounts are made for such differences that
are permanent in nature.  Accordingly, at June 30, 1998, reclassifications were
recorded to increase (decrease) undistributed net investment income by $(7,039),
$(256), $132,177 and $(3,119); increase (decrease) accumulated net realized gain
on investments by $7,735, $954, $(131,418) and $3,817; and decrease paid-in
capital in excess of par by $696, $698, $759 and $698 for the Fixed Income,
Equity Income, Equity Growth and Balanced Funds, respectively.

e) Expenses - Each Fund is charged for those expenses that are directly
attributable to it, such as investment advisory and custody fees.  Expenses that
are not directly attributable to a Fund are typically allocated among the Funds
in proportion to their respective net assets.

f) Other - Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date plus one.
The Funds determine the gain or loss realized from investment transactions by
comparing the original cost of the security lot sold with the net sale proceeds.
Dividend income is recognized on an accrual basis.  Premiums and discounts on
securities purchased are amortized using the level yield maturity method.

3. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND OTHER AGREEMENTS
Each Fund has entered into an agreement with the Adviser, with whom certain
officers and directors of the Funds are affiliated, to furnish investment
advisory services to the Funds.  Under the terms of this agreement, the Funds
will pay the Adviser a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at the annual
rate of the following percentages of average daily net assets: 0.60% for the
Fixed Income Fund; and 1.00% for the Equity Income, Equity Growth and Balanced
Funds.

The Adviser voluntarily agreed to waive its management fee to the extent that
total annual operating expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes, brokerage
commissions and other costs incurred in connection with the purchase or sale of
portfolio securities, and extraordinary items) exceed 1.00% of the average daily
net assets of the Fixed Income Fund and 1.50% of the average daily net assets of
the Equity Income, Equity Growth and Balanced Funds, respectively, computed on a
daily basis.  For the six months ended June 30, 1998, expenses of $1,930 were
waived by the Adviser in the Fixed Income Fund.

Sunstone Financial Group, Inc. (the "Administrator") may periodically volunteer
to reduce all or a portion of its administrative fee with respect to one or more
of the Funds.  These waivers may be terminated at any time at the
Administrator's discretion.  The Administrator may not seek reimbursement of
such voluntarily reduced fees at a later date.  The reduction of such fee will
cause the yield of that Fund to be higher than it would be in the absence of
such reduction.  For the six months ended June 30, 1998, administrative fees of
$7,345 were waived in the Balanced Fund.
