I do not think that you are correct in your assertion that sororities in general are "heavily focused on God". What is your criteria for this? It's a pretty general statement that should be supported with evidence.
Sorority ritual is nothing like "taking communion". My membership in a sorority is not going to bring me salvation.

I will say my chapter had a "prayer request" prayer at every chapter meeting, and it is at a public school. However I don't remember it ever deviating from something like, "God, please remember all of these sisters and their prayers"...but it never really bothered me to sit quietly and listen, and no one ever said anything to me about the fact that I didn't bow my head, fold my hands, and close my eyes. I wasn't the only sister that did not directly participate. But I don't remember it being an issue for those that were not religious or those that were as long as everyone was respectful, and for the most part we all were (of religion anyway
).
