Hi Linda;

Your St Lambert is doubt the St Lambert, Chambly County, just across
the river from Montreal. One of our listers states that the church
was not established until 1887, but that is the Catholic parish.
There may have been a Protestant church there before that. The town
was majority English until a few years back.

Regards
