I am an active member of Alpha Epsilon Phi and I am Catholic as is our current chapter president. And basically I agree that sororities that are historically one religion or another are not about excluding people but rather about creating an environment where people are comfortable being themselves. In my chapter that means we avoid having important events during the sabbath or jewish holy days and trying to have kosher food around because many our members are jewish. But on the same note my chapter would never have an important event on a Christian holiday.
As for rushing as a junior that can be sometimes tricky with established chapters but with a colony it should be a lot easier. You will probably get a chance to hold leadership positions that you may have never gotten a chance to hold in an already established chapter.
My membership in AEPhi has been a amazing experience and I really hope you give it a try.
