PASTOR TED HAGGARD GOING TO LEAD WORSHIP AGAIN

COLORADO SPRINGS, CO - Ted Haggard, who was dismissed from the megachurch he founded after a man alleged a cash-for-sex relationship with him, plans to lead people in worship again.
The pastor told The Gazette he is holding a "prayer meeting" November 12 in his Colorado Springs living room, but said it would also be correct to call it a church.
Haggard says he has no goals of building something like New Life Church, which began with about 25 people in his basement in 1985 and grew to thousands of members.
Haggard resigned from the church in 2006 after a Denver man said Haggard paid him for sex.
The gathering on Thursday will include music, an offering to New Life Church, and a talk from Haggard about the power of prayer.
