St. Hubert (656–727 A.D.), Bishop of Liege and patron of hunters, hailed from the Dukedom of Aquitaine. Once a grand master, he turned to hunting and soldiering. On a Good Friday hunt, a stag, bearing a cross, urged him to repent. His wife’s death led him to forsake worldly possessions, becoming a priest in Stavelot, Belgium. Following Lambert’s assassination, Hubert, sent by the Pope, became Bishop. He lived a virtuous life and died as a confessor, confessing the faith, though not a martyr.
