The children faint and the school says it was the Holy Spirit – ElSol.com.ar – Diario de Mendoza, Argentina

At the Jahve Nisi School, in Santa Juana District, in the Biobío region, Chile, during the first Monday morning recess, about ten students fainted, which the school attributes to a "spiritual" experience.

According to the school, what happened was not a lack of breakfast, nor dehydration, nor heat, nor excessive physical activity. It was the product of a manifestation of the "Holy Spirit," they badured.

The subsidized private school, for which it receives public funds, is an evangelical denomination. Her sympathizer, Natalie Fernandez, met with the local television channel Amigos Penquistas and recounted the religious phenomenon that took place: "During the first break, a group of students from the Evangelical Pentecostal Church is gathered and the Holy Spirit has manifested it. "He said. And the behavior would have been, in his own words, "stereotypical movements and words in strange languages", after which they would have fainted.

"It's an unusual activity in humans, it's usual to faint, but do not lose consciousness and do not do physical damage, there are no aggression" said Fernandez, which excludes that this was encouraged by the school. or that drugs have been used.

"These situations occur regularly in evangelical churches, so there is no fear, on the contrary, for us, it is a true miracle and a joy to live these things with our students," he said. he declared.

The fact has generated such an impact on the community. The school summoned lawyers on Monday to an emergency meeting and issued a statement that it was "a blessing", that lawyers were allowed to visit their children, that there was no no students damaged and what they are working on a protocol for future "miraculous appearances".

In the statement of the school, it was also explained that "we went to witness the situation by accompanying the students and asked the help of the pastor of the evangelical Pentecostal church, who came to the school and spoke to the youth by the word of the Lord. "

The letter makes no mention of doctors, infirmaries or checkups in a health facility.
