"Arrow-Maker"

I was dubbed this title by some students at Mill Creek Community Church after explaining the meaning of my name (Fletcher). It is the English spelling of an Old French term meaning one who fletches arrows. It literally means featherer of arrows or roughly translated arrow maker. It was the job of a fletcher to make true/straight the flight of an arrow. It is my hope that through the posts and links provided in this journal I would bring truth and insight to the topics I share.

The Fletcher clan (Of which I am not actually a part-it's not my surname) had two phrases attributed to them. One, Dieu Pour Nous, meaning: God for us. And two, Alta Pete or Aim at high things. Although I cannot lay claim to these philosophical statements with respect to geneology, I surely have access to the power and vision they embody.
