COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) - 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"
Nov. 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 Nov. 12 will include music, an offering to New Life Church and a talk from Haggard about the power of prayer.
