St. Hubert is known as the patron saint of hunters, dogs, and archers. Among sport hunters he is credited as the source of ethical hunting behavior. He is recognized as the 1st bishop of Liege, and was a evangelistic bishop reaching out to the pagans along the Ardennes Forest earning him the title the Apostle of the Ardennes.

In response to his wife’s death, St. Hubert felt great confusion and anger toward God. He abandoned the faith that she had helped him to rekindle and went back to a life obsessed with hunting and the accolades that came with it. One Good Friday, St. Hubert set out on horseback to hunt. He came upon a large group of people gathered for devotions in honor of the holy day. The priest asked St. Hubert to join them, but St. Hubert kept on his way, preferring hunting over prayer.
 While in the woods, St. Hubert came upon a male deer with large antlers, looking right at him. As St. Hubert readied his bow and arrow to take the deer down, he noticed between the deer’s antlers was a crucifix, radiant with light. St. Hubert heard a voice telling him to turn his life over to God. He got down from his horse, knelt on the ground, and promised that he would follow the Lord’s command.
