Alright my question is somewhat complex so I’ll start this way. Suppose you do something you really like, for example a sport. However, all your teammates bring alcholol to practices, party up on weekends, and sleep around. You, though, aren’t like them. You like to pray the Rosary, go to church, etc. And you like (love) the sport. But in a situation like this, should you stay on the team and tough it out, or should you quit because of your teammates? Advice?
Oh, assume this is at the high school or college level. Not professional.
Thank you,

I would say you can enjoy your sport. I would skip the after parties.
 
Nobody ever said it was easy to lead by example. Maybe being Catholic may just change somebody’s life on your team. Live life your way and enjoy the sport you love. If we didn’t interact with people that were different than ourselves life would be very lonely.👍

You do what you like and they do what they like. You gain their respect by being the best teammate you can be. If they raz you about your faith, you simply allow it to roll off. Show gentle Christian Love and forbearance.

Peace
