LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

December 31, 2004

ARTHUR D. ALLY

Dear Timothy Plan Strategic Growth Portfolio Variable Series Shareholder:

I remember my dad once telling me that, as you get older, time speeds up. Although logic would explain that there are still 24 hours in a day and 365 days in a year, I’m beginning to think that dad was right. Even though the year 2004 was a leap year with 366 days, it seemed a lot shorter than 2003 which seemed a lot shorter than 2002, etc.

As you know, the Strategic Growth Portfolio Variable Series is comprised of a specific fixed asset allocation that is invested in five of our underlying funds. From my perspective, our overall performance in 2004 was respectable, especially in view of the uncertainty created by a presidential election and a continuing war in Iraq. Although performance was not as good as 2003, it was a whole lot better than 2002 – the year the market experienced some serious correction. And, for what it’s worth, I have a feeling that 2005 – even with its rough start – will prove to be mildly positive. Of course, in this industry, we cannot (and must not) ever make any guarantees of that fact.

We continue to have confidence in our various sub-advisors although we do plan to recommend one manager change in 2005. While performance will vary from year to year, we believe that good money managers will produce competitive returns over full market cycles. Our commitment to our shareholders continues to be that we take our role as managers of our managers very seriously.

In another vein, I am pleased to report that our mission continues to be on track. The Biblical Stewardship Seminar Series that we launched last year is beginning to have an impact. We have trained nearly 200 Christian financial planners and 50 ministry leaders to date and have certified them to teach this program in the churches and ministries in their respective communities or circles of influence. Once again, if any of you have an interest in having this seminar series presented to your church or ministry, please call us at 1-800-846-7526 or email us at info@timothyplan.com.

Thanks again for being part of the Timothy Plan family.

Sincerely,

Arthur D. Ally,

President

Small Cap Value	15.83	%
Fixed Income	9.80	%
Cash & Equivalents	2.17	%
	100.00	%

EXPENSE EXAMPLE:

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: direct costs, such as wire fees and low balance fees; and indirect costs, including management fees, and other Fund operating expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your indirect costs, also referred to as “ongoing costs,” (in dollars) of investing in the Fund, and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

This example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period of July 1, 2004, through December 31, 2004.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested at the beginning of the period, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

INDUSTRIES/EXPENSE EXAMPLE

December 31, 2004

TIMOTHY PLAN STRATEGIC GROWTH PORTFOLIO VARIABLE SERIES

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes

The second line of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any direct costs, such as wire fees or low balance fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these direct costs were included, your costs would be higher.

	Beginning Account Value 7/1/04		Ending Account Value 12/31/04		Expenses Paid During Period* July 1, 2004 Through 12/31/04

Hypothetical - (5% return before expenses)		1,000.00		1,020.86		4.32

* Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio of 0.85%, which is net of any expenses paid indirectly, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184 days/366 days (to reflect the one-half year period). The Fund’s ending account value on the first line in the table is based on its actual total return of 4.19% for the six-month period of July 1, 2004, to December 31, 2004.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2004

TIMOTHY PLAN STRATEGIC GROWTH PORTFOLIO VARIABLE SERIES

Note 1 – Significant Accounting Policies

The Timothy Plan Strategic Growth Portfolio Variable Series (individually 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 16, 1993 (the “Trust Agreement”). The Strategic Growth Portfolio’s primary investment objective is medium to high levels of long term capital growth, with a secondary objective of current income only to the extent that the Timothy Funds in which the Strategic Growth Portfolio invests seek current income. The Strategic Growth Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing primarily in the following Timothy Funds: Small Cap Value Fund, Large/Mid Cap Value Fund, Large/Mid Cap Growth Fund, Aggressive Growth Fund and the Fixed Income 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 Funds 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. The Strategic Growth Portfolio began operations May 6, 2002.

A. Security Valuation.

The Fund purchases Class A Shares of the Timothy Funds at net asset value without any sales charges. With respect to securities owned by the Timothy Funds, securities listed or traded on a securities exchange for which representative market quotations are available will be valued at the last quoted sales price on the security’s principal exchange on that day. Listed securities not traded on an exchange that day, and other securities which are traded in the over-the-counter markets, will be valued at the last reported bid price in the market on that day, if any. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available and all other assets will be valued at their respective fair market values as determined by the Adviser in conformity with guidelines adopted by and subject to the review of the Board of Trustees. Short-term obligations with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates market value.

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 value 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. All tax consequences will be borne by the Fund’s Investment Advisor. The Fund qualified as a regulated investment company for the year ended December 31, 2004. 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.

Note 2 – Purchases and Sales of Securities

The following is a summary of the cost of purchases and proceeds from the sale of securities, other than short-term investments, for the year ended December 31, 2004:

funds	purchases		sales
Strategic Growth Portfolio	$	3,220,000	$	485,000

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

TIMOTHY PLAN STRATEGIC GROWTH PORTFOLIO VARIABLE SERIES

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 February 27, 2004. Under the terms of the Agreement, TPL receives a fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.

The Advisor has contractually 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 0.85% of average daily net assets through April 30, 2005.

For the year ended December 31, 2004, TPL recouped from the Fund as follows:

funds	(recoupments)
Strategic Growth Portfolio	$	(6,937	)

The Timothy Plan Strategic Growth Portfolio has agreed to repay waived and formerly reimbursed expenses within the following three years provided the Fund is able to effect such reimbursements and remain in compliance with applicable limitations.

At December 31, 2004, the cumulative amounts available for reimbursement that has been paid and/or waived by the Advisor on behalf of the Fund are as follows:

The Timothy Plan

Winter Park, Florida

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of The Timothy Plan Strategic Growth Portfolio Variable Series (“the Fund”), a series of shares of The Timothy Plan, including the portfolio of investments, as of December 31, 2004, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended and the period ended December 31, 2002. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (US). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Timothy Plan Strategic Growth Portfolio Variable Series as of December 31, 2004, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended and the period ended December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
