Loaves are Blessed on this day (3 November) in honour of Saint Hubert, whose Feast Day is Solemnised in certain Countries on 3 November.

The Church asks God to preserve those, who eat of this bread, from the bite of mad dogs, from The Plague, and other diseases.

In a Second Prayer, The Church makes a similar request for the animals to whom the bread is given.

Hubertus or Hubert (circa 656 A.D. – 30 May 727 A.D.) was

a Christian Saint who became the first Bishop of Liège in

708 A.D.[1] He was the Patron Saint of Hunters, Mathematicians, Opticians, Metalworkers.

Known as the “Apostle of The Ardennes”, he was called upon, until the Early-20th-Century, to cure rabies through the use of the Traditional Saint Hubert’s Key.[2]
