Investment Objective

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks the highest total return over time consistent with the asset mix. Total return includes capital appreciation and income.

Investment Strategy

Investment Strategy

The Fund pursues its objective by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of GuideStone Funds Select Funds that represent various asset classes. The Fund is managed to the specific retirement year included its name and assumes a retirement age of 65. Over time, the allocation to asset classes will change according to a predetermined "glide path" that adjusts the percentage of fixed income securities and the percentage of equity securities to become more conservative each year until approximately 15 years after the target date.

Investment Suitability

Investment Suitability

The Fund is designed for an investor who anticipates retiring at or near the target date and who plans to withdraw the value of the account in the Fund gradually after retirement. Over time, the allocation to asset classes will change according to a predetermined "glide path," which adjusts the percentage of fixed income securities and equity securities to become more conservative each year until approximately 15 years after the target date.

The Fund's value will fluctuate due to changes in interest rates. There is a risk that the issuer of a fixed income investment may fail to pay interest or even principal due in a timely manner or at all. The Fund's value will fluctuate due to business developments concerning a particular issuer, industry or country, as well as general market and economic conditions. Securities of foreign issuers may be negatively impacted by political events, economic conditions or inefficient, illiquid or unregulated markets in foreign countries, and they also may be subject to inadequate regulatory or accounting standards, which may increase investment risk. By investing in this Fund, you will incur the expenses of the Fund, in addition to those of the underlying Select Funds. You may directly invest in the Select Funds. The Fund's value will go up and down in response to changes in the share prices of the investments that it owns. The amount invested in the Fund is not guaranteed to increase, is not guaranteed against loss, nor is the amount of the original investment guaranteed at the target date. This description of risks is provided as a summary of the principal investment risks associated with this mutual fund. Refer to the Fund's prospectus for more detailed risk information.

Date Value Description

Prospectus & Reports

GuideStone Funds shares are distributed by Foreside Funds Distributors LLC, not an adviser affiliate. Foreside is not a registered investment adviser and does not provide investment advice.

Asset allocation subject to change at any time. Pie chart is a representation and actual exposures may differ. The size denotes the relative weighting in the Fund. 

Standard Deviation — Depicts how widely returns varied over a certain period of time. A high standard deviation implies greater volatility and greater risk.

Beta vs. S&P 500® Index — Beta is a measure of a fund’s sensitivity to market movements as defined by the S&P 500® Index. A fund with a higher beta relative to the S&P 500® Index is more volatile than the S&P 500® Index.

Net Asset Value — The Net Asset Value (NAV) is calculated by taking the closing market value of all the investments owned by a fund, plus all other assets such as cash, subtracting all liabilities, then dividing the result (total net assets) by the total number of shares outstanding.

Record Date — The distribution that an investor receives is calculated based on the number of shares that an investor owns on Record Date, typically using the share balance in an investor's account at the close of that day’s business.

Pay/Reinvest Date — The date on which distributions are posted to accounts for reinvestment or paid to shareholders who take distributions in cash.

Dividends — Dividends are income distributions to shareholders out of income from a fund’s investments.

Short-term Capital Gains — Distributions to shareholders derived from the profit of the sale of stocks or bonds held within a fund for a period of one year or less.

Long-term Capital Gains — Distributions to shareholders derived from the profit of the sale of stocks or bonds held within a fund for a period of more than one year.
