I rushed a Christian sorority at my first school, but did not go through initiation because I knew I was transferring. I was in the Alpha pledge class (the first one) and I did not want to become an alumna at the same time that the founders did, it felt like I would be cheating them somehow.
The chapter I was shortly involved with did not force their beliefs on anyone, but they did outline their beliefs and values in an information meeting before rush even began. There was also an interview process at the end of rush before bids were sent out, where they briefly and casually asked you about your personal beliefs. It didn't feel like judgement at all to me, and I understood where they were coming from: Having established a Christian sorority, they wanted to make sure members were all on the same page. It was very general stuff, not going into specifics. There were girls from all sorts of denominations involved.
I really enjoyed my time with them and would have been initiated and remained very active with them if I had stayed at that school.
Members were allowed to rush anywhere that would allow them (NPC, whatever APO is) but it was more of a time issue than a faith thing, that most girls did not rush both. But it was nowhere in the rules that you could not. The only rules were along the same lines as NPC: No letters while drinking, you could not take off your letters (lettered shirt) for a guy nor could a guy remove your letters from you.
I know they are a very small group of GLOs so I would love to answer any questions that I can! Sorry I'm not exactly a resident expert, though!
