LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

June 30, 2004 (Unaudited)

ARTHUR D. ALLY

Dear Timothy Plan Variable Series Shareholder:

To say that we are living in an unsettled topsy-turvy world would be an understatement. Let’s review some of the ‘stuff’ that is going on at this writing:

• We remain in a war against terrorism – not only in Iraq and Afghanistan – but also in many other parts of our world.

• We are in, what we believe to be, the early stages of an economic recovery but there are liberal voices in our land that claim this is simply not so.

• Although interest rates remain at historic lows, they are beginning to move upward. We believe, however that this will prove to be gradual and not excessive.

• We are in a presidential election year and the media is heavily selling the fact that this will be a very close race. As you probably know, the stock market does not like uncertainty.

• In addition to all that, we live in a time where another terrorist attack within our borders is a distinct possibility and, in fact, could come at any time.

In spite of all that we, along with the managers of our underlying funds, maintain a positive outlook for the remainder of this year and into next year. We believe the markets will remain choppy as a result of the above issues but that the bias will be upward. Although there is no guarantee that this will be the case, the increasing strength of our overall economy gives us a lot of confidence.

As you can see from the report following this letter, our performance is in positive territory for the first six months of this year. We are hopeful that this trend will continue as an extension of our market recovery that began last year.

Nevertheless, please understand that we remain steadfast in our mission of providing a competitive investment vehicle while honoring our commitment to morally responsible investing.

Thank you for joining us in this endeavor and never forget who is the true Owner of this investment.

Sincerely,

Arthur D. Ally,

President

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2004 (Unaudited)

SMALL CAP VARIABLE SERIES

Note 1 – Significant Accounting Policies

The Timothy Plan Small-Cap Variable Series (the “Fund”) was organized as a diversified series of The Timothy Plan (the “Trust”). The Trust is an open-ended investment company established under the laws of Delaware by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated December 14, 1993 (the “Trust Agreement”). The Fund’s primary objective is long-term capital growth, with a secondary objective of current income. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in common stocks and American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) while abiding by ethical standards established for investments by the Fund. The Fund is one of one series of funds currently authorized by the Board of Trustees. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for investment companies.

A. Security Valuation.

Investments in securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price on the last business day of the period. Securities for which quotations are not available are valued at fair market value is determined in good faith by each Fund’s investment manager, in conformity with guidelines adopted by and subject to the review and supervision of the Board of Trustees. Unlisted securities, or listed securities in which there were no sales, are valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask prices. Short-term obligations with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. Securities for which quotations are not available are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith by each Fund’s investment manager, in conformity with guidelines adopted by and subject to the review and supervision of the Board of Trustees.

B. Investment Income and Securities Transactions.

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Cost is determined and gains and losses are based on the identified cost basis for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are reported on the ex-dividend date. Interest income and expenses are accrued daily.

C. Net Asset Value Per Share.

Net asset per share of the capital stock of the Fund is determined daily as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange by dividing the value of its net assets by the number of Fund shares outstanding.

D. Federal Income Taxes.

It is the policy of the Fund to comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

E. Use of Estimates.

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

F. Reclassifications.

The Fund has recorded a reclassification in the capital accounts. As of December 31, 2003, the Fund recorded permanent book/tax differences of $8,868 from net investment loss to paid-in-capital. This reclassification has no impact on the net asset value of the Fund and is designed generally to present undistributed income and realized gains on a tax basis, which is considered to be more informative to shareholders.

SMALL CAP VARIABLE SERIES

G. Repurchase Agreements.

In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Fund’s policy that its custodian take possession of the underlying collateral securities, the fair value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest, at all times. If the seller defaults, and the fair value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.

SMALL CAP VARIABLE SERIES

Note 2 – Purchases and Sales of Securities

Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term investments, aggregated $1,458,530 and $1,636,187 respectively, for the six month period ended June 30, 2004.

Note 3 – Investment Management Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Timothy Partners, LTD., (“TPL”) is the investment Advisor for the Fund pursuant to an Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) effective June 11, 2001. Under the terms of the Agreement, TPL receives a fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. The Advisor has voluntarily agreed to reduce fees payable to it by the Fund and reimburse other expenses to the extent necessary to limit the Fund’s aggregate annual operating expenses, excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses, interest, taxes, capital expenditures and extraordinary expenses, to 1.20% of average daily net assets through June 30, 2004. As a result, the Advisor has waived a portion of their fee and reimbursed the Fund for expenses in excess of the limit in the amount of $12,933 for the six month period ended June 30, 2004. There is no guarantee that the Advisor will waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in the future.

Note 4 – Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

At June 30, 2004, the cost for federal income tax purposes is $4,467,949. At June 30, 2004, the composition of gross unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment securities for tax purposes is as follows:

	Appreciation		Depreciation			Net Appreciation
The Timothy Plan Small-Cap Variable Series	$	1,266,414	($	85,609	)	$	1,180,805

Note 5 – Distributions to Shareholders

The tax character of distributions paid during 2003 and 2002 were as follows:

	Small-Cap Variable Fund
2003
Ordinary Income	$	—
Long-term Capital Gains		—
Return of Capital		—
	$	—
2002
Ordinary Income	$	2,099
Long-term Capital Gains		—
Return of Capital		35,110
	$	37,209
As of December 31, 2003, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
Undistributed Ordinary Income	$	—
Undistributed Long-term Capital Gains		(413,553	)
Unrealized Appreciation		1,188,870
	$	775,317

The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized depreciation is attributable to the tax deferral of losses on post-October losses.

Note 6 – Capital Loss Carryforward

At December 31, 2003, the Fund had capital loss carryforwards of $413,553, which expires in 2011. To the extent these loss carryforwards are used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that the amount, which is offset, will not be distributed to shareholders. The Fund has elected to defer post-October losses of $6,474, which will be available to offset gains in 2004.
