she's free to be a Christian whether anyone else sympathizes or not. Freedom of religion is specified because there are guaranteed to be people who will not be sympathetic to your choice.

If she's living her life as a Christian, there's no need for it to get in somebody's face that I ever heard. If she's trying to make others practice her Christianity, that's different.
