Hal had a love of learning and explored writing, acting, teaching, and music. He attended General Seminary in New York City, and was ordained as an Episcopal Priest in 1978. Later, Hal served joyfully, both as a parish priest and especially as Cannon Missioner alongside his very good friend, Charles Woltz (Cannon to the Ordinary).

He was committed to youth ministry and spent several years as the director of the Episcopal summer camp program. Later he was privileged to serve in campus ministry at St. Anselm's of Canterbury in Norman, Oklahoma.
Hal was also a lifelong and passionate musician. An accomplished singer songwriter, he spent many years writing music for the youth ministry as well as with his longtime songwriting partner Lindy Hearne.
