You need to do a search on here. There is an extensive thread about the Drost situation. Basiclay there was a dispute between Drost and the UPCI Foreign Missions division and Drost has pulled the entire Mexican UPC out of the main org. I am quite sure that is why the UPCI recalled missionairies and are not currently sending AIM's to Mexico.
I am sure they are waiting to resolve the situation or to get a new organization organized to go back into Mexico competing with Drost's org.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
