Romani Pentecostalism: Gypsies and Charismatic Christianity, edited by David Thurfjell and Adrian Marsh, Peter Lang, 2014, is a scholarly anthology confirmed to include a chapter by Regis Laurent specifically on the founding of Vie et Lumiere (Life and Light) by Clement Le Cossec among French Roma from 1952. Its strength is that this specific chapter directly documents the founding this atlas cites it for, within a peer reviewed academic collection. Its limit is that, as an edited volume, other chapters vary by contributor and cover other regions; the older, separate devotional practice of the Camargue Sara-la-Kali pilgrimage is not this chapter's subject and is not claimed on its authority.

Assessment
Reliability Tier1
Romani Pentecostalism: Gypsies and Charismatic Christianity, edited by David Thurfjell and Adrian Marsh, published by Peter Lang in 2014, the top tier reflecting that its Regis Laurent chapter directly documents Clement Le Cossec's 1952 founding of Vie et Lumiere within a peer reviewed academic collection, notwithstanding that as an edited volume other chapters vary by contributor and cover other regions. NotesScholarly anthology on Romani Pentecostal movements across Europe; its chapter by Regis Laurent covers exactly the founding of Vie et Lumiere (Life and Light) by Clement Le Cossec among French Roma from 1952. Reaches the fact's Gypsy Evangelical Church claim; the Camargue Sara-la-Kali pilgrimage sentence in the same fact is a separate, older devotional practice not this volume's subject and is not claimed for it.
