Hide AdWork has been undertaken to reduce the risk of flooding in the future, including clearance of the stream by volunteers, while a local builder oversaw the repair of a path washed away in the storm.
Northumberland County Council has also cleared a ditch and improved the road layout.
Rev Rich Townend said: “There has been so much goodwill shown by many people in the local area, and from my other churches too.”
