Our Leadership Team
We exist to bring the beauty of the gospel to the broken places in our lives.
Adam Viramontes- Lead Pastor
Adam, and his wife Heather, are both native Albuquerque kids who have fallen deeply in love with this city. They discovered the extravagance of God’s grace in college and have been walking together with Jesus ever since. They have been married since 2004 and now have three bold and beautiful children.
After gaining life and ministry experience all across the country, including undergraduate studies at Grand Canyon University and graduate studies at Reformed Theological Seminary, the Viramontes family was called to plant Mosaic Church in 2015. Adam considers himself an amateur chef, wants to be a good golfer when he grows up, and enjoys reading a wide variety of books with a frothy IPA in hand.
Adam’s hope for Mosaic Church is that it becomes a community of faith where anyone can belong and everyone is transformed by the inner working of God’s love in their life!

Rick Smith- Spiritual Formation Pastor
Rick and his wife, Vicki, met while on Young Life staff on the West Coast. They fell head over heels for one another and were married one year later in 1973. That’s right, 1973! They have been gifted with four adult children and eight amazing grandchildren. Rick attended Covenant Seminary then served in several churches in the Southwest before joining the staff of InFaith, an American mission to the underserved population of the U.S. Rick and Vicki first visited Mosaic in 2016 right after their move to Albuquerque.
They joined a Community Circle the next week; and have been hooked ever since they watch God transforming lives. Rick enjoys walking, dancing, biking, and goes crazy over a good maple-walnut latte freeze. But the thing that really “makes his day” is enjoying a meal with a friend and sharing what’s going on in their lives.
Rick is passionate about encouraging, caring for, and helping people to tap into the power of the gospel. That’s why he’s excited about the future of Mosaic as we partner with God in transforming brokenness into beauty one person at a time...in community
Jack Dallman - Elder
Born and raised in Nebraska, Jack met his Connecticut Yankee wife, Marty, in Lincoln, Nebraska of all places. After marriage and college, they settled in Idaho in 1978. Three children later, they moved to Albuquerque in 1991.
After a long engineering career, Jack retired from Los Alamos National Laboratory in 2015. Soon after they returned to Albuquerque from Santa Fe, they discovered Mosaic Church. Jack has been a life-long Christian, but his faith and connection to the Lord grew exponentially through structured Bible studies. He loves studying and teaching God’s Word. What a joy! Jackand Marty love their 7 grandchildren, and they enjoy hiking, golfing, and watching college football - Go BigRed! It is also his heart’s joy to see others’ lives enriched by good Christian fellowship and small group studies focusing on our relationships with the Lord.
Jack’s hope and prayer for Mosaic Church is that by God’s grace, we would all learn to love the Lord our God with all our heart, with all our soul and with all our minds. And also, that we would love our neighbors as ourselves.
