It’s fiesta time, and classic Mexican cuisine is on the menu for a Salvation Army Women’s Auxiliary fundraiser.

“The auxiliary is serving up hope,” said Sue Tolbert, a member of the group and co-chair of the event, set for Saturday evening at the First Church of the Nazarene. “That’s what we do with anything that we do, and we’re constantly looking for ways to raise money.”

Served from 5 to 7 p.m. at the church on Wisconsin Avenue, will be chicken enchiladas, rice, refried beans and beverages. The enchiladas will be prepared at the church, and the rice and beans will be donated by El Sombrero Mexican Restaurant. Tickets are $7 each and must be bought in advance; a total of 300 are available. Patrons may dine at the church or pick up their food. The event will also feature a bake sale.
