Troy Schreiner,
Pastor
I grew up in Michigan, and attended high school at Michigan Lutheran Seminary, where I first received encouragement and began considering being a pastor. I received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Martin Luther College in New Ulm, MN in 2010, and received my Seminary training at Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary in Mequon, WI. In 2013, I served a one-year pastoral internship near Charleston, SC, and first got to experience life in the south! Upon graduation from WLS, I was assigned to serve as an associate pastor at Mount Olive Lutheran Church in Appleton, WI. I served at Mount Olive for 5 years, during which my ministry focused on the areas of Evangelism, Youth Ministry, and Worship.
In 2014, I married my wife Kelly. We have three young children, Faith, Noah, and Magdalena, and a Fox Terrier named Max. Our family loves spending time outside, going camping, traveling, and playing games. In just a short time, Jacksonville already feels like home, and we’re so excited to continue to grow closer and more connected to our church family at Victory, and our Jacksonville community! We can’t wait to meet you in person at Victory!

Angela Shaver,
Lead VPK Teacher
Hello! I am Angie Shaver. I joined Victory Lutheran Preschool in 2022. Teaching has always been a passion of mine. I have been in early childhood education for 19 years as a teacher, director, curriculum implementation, and accreditation. I have 3 children: 1 son, and 2 daughters.
I am originally from California and I moved here in 1999 when I was stationed at NS Mayport. I served 4 years on the USS Obannon before I started a family and I saw the importance of a quality preschool experience. I am very excited to be a part of the Victory Family.

Amy Warren,
3K Teacher Aide
I joined Victory Lutheran Church in 2018 when my husband and I moved to the Jacksonville area from Minnesota. After being members for a couple of years an opportunity arose to help out with the 3-year-old program here as an aide and I started with that program in January of 2022. I am enjoying my time here with the 3-year-olds in our class. I was a Kindergarten Aide at a Lutheran grade school in Minnesota for 11 years, and also helped out with the Before School Care and After School Care program that had a range of students from preschool through 8th grade.
Christian education is very important to my family, as I have gone to a Lutheran grade school and high school and we also sent our children to Lutheran schools from preschool all they way through their high school graduation. I am enjoying the interaction with the students as they learn about Jesus, and also as they learn to interact with the other children. It is truly a blessing to be at Victory Lutheran.
