I bet if you do a search here on AFF you will find info about it. I remember it being discussed. Like you I would like to see the wording. I remember that there was controversy because at the time at least WPF was claiming it was not going to be an org in the sense of licensing preachers, etc. I think once the UPC banned dual membership anyway they probably decided to go ahead and license. Maybe not though. Perhaps one of those liberal ultra cons who uses the internet can let us know!

"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."

Am I saying all affilated churches do this? No, because I imagine tehre are some that don't and I doubt the rule is enforced. Never the less it is there unless it has been changed.

You're correct about this. I went to the church library tonight, and looked for myself. Very interesting, as to we don't have 'United Pentecostal Church' represented anywhere...not even our church bulletins or our website. I did hear from a reliable source the DKB said that the handbook will be rewritten with many unnecessary traditional things omitted, very soon. Its gonna be interesting what will be omitted....

Triumph Church, Pastor Stephen Schmidt: Greenwood, Ind. (branched off from Calvary Tabernacle in Indianapolis)

The Restoration Church, Pastor David Stephenson, Greenwood, Ind.
www.restorationchurchgreenwood.org/
I think Restoration Church used to be UPCI, but I'm not positive. I know they have connections. (John Stephenson pastors UPCI church in Franklin, Ind.)

This is correct, the national org passed the rule, but leaves it up to the district to enforce.
Some districts do not enforce it, therefore you have some that I know that have both.

BT was never UPC, but I think Pastor Jim Cymbala has Oneness Pentecostal roots.

Agreed, Hoovie, totally agree.
