According to tradition, while hunting on Good Friday, he encountered a stag bearing a crucifix between its antlers, a moment that led him to abandon his old life and pursue the priesthood. He became the first bishop of Liège in 708, spending the rest of his life caring for the poor and evangelizing the region until his death in 727.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Gift For...\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA hunter, outdoorsman, or forest worker\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dog owner or dog lover\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSomeone whose faith found them unexpectedly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone who values the outdoors as a place of reflection\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Confirmation Gift for Hubert\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis medal suits a young man who spends more time outdoors than in, a hunter, an athlete, or simply someone who thinks best away from walls.
