Last year I wrote a reflection on my religious faith....its about how I have been enriched by the diverse backgrounds of my closests friends, how I have come to appreciate the many options in faith, how I was "born" Catholic but I always felt that I should continue to explore other religions....the essay culminates in my experience attending an easter vigil at my local parish, and how for once I really appreciated my family's "inherited" denomination....
What you described sounds personal, detailed, honest and revealing. In other words, imo it sounds suitable for a college essay.

should religion be avoided???
The college essay is supposed to be a personal statement, not an argument. As long as you stay personal, and, particularly, you avoid being contentious, political, argumentative, I think that you will be fine.
