Story Summary

From the outside, 5-Star Buildings is just a local business like any other in Cuba, Missouri, home to just under 3,500 people. When you look closely, listen, and take it all in, you find love, compassion and faith – all pillars of the Mennonite community – present in this small-town business.

Owner Kris Zimmerman owns and operates 5-Star Buildings, which builds and sells portable buildings. He works with a handful of people who share his faith, creating a tight-knit family atmosphere who attend church services on Sundays in an unassuming building adjacent to the workshop.
