What a wonderful forum, thank you all so much for replies! You have all given me so much to think about.

As of now:

-Yes, I am converting through an Orthodox beis din.

-No, I absolutely will not cut off my family under any circumstances.

-I am going to inquire with a rabbi about my situation to see if there are any permissible activities such as visiting my family on Christmas day, but not participating in any of the actual festivities.

Thank you all so much again for sharing your advice, encouragement, support and knowledge. Much gratitude. Shavua tov!
