Love Is Stronger Than Faction!

I was reading somewhere that "Love is stronger than faction". That set me thinking - isn't that so true?
In our faction fight today, both sides seem to have valid grievances. Thus it is complicated. No easy solutions are seen. So let the fight go on as led by the leaders on both sides.(for now)
Lets work for unity
But at the same time, is it possible to explore areas where we can stand together?

Can some of the moderates on both sides explore possibilities to work together on other areas where our paths merge?

Like - maybe a youth project by the youth league on both sides to work together in a village in North India?

Like - maybe a trip by youngsters from both sides to visit some pilgrimage centers and stay together for some days?
Like - maybe a joint conference on a Biblical theme?

Like - some things which can help nurture a new generation where there is love? Today that love is scarce. When the love reaches the brim and overflows, it will spill over and factions will disappear.
Is that possible? Maybe even in the midst of the grievances, a bishop can be assigned from each side to explore this? Who knows - it may work wonders - after all we have a Lord who rose from the dead.
