simple Orzhov cleric deck based around Vito and Ancestor's Prophet.
get out lots of clerics, and Vito turns all your life gain into life drain. ideal play is turn 1 sanctifier or vessel, turn two another sanctifier or vessel, turn 3 Vito, turn 4 faithmender, turn 5 Prophet, tap to drain for 20.Unbruial Rites can either get you a 5/5 flyer or help you get Vito or Prophet back, and the other cards help you with damage until you can find Prophet.

Soul Warden may be nice for this deck (Whenever another creature enters the battlefield, you gain 1 life.) punish your opp for playing creatures along with vito's ability and youll gain from your on drops. Maybe Survival Cache over Revitalize. It's a sorcery and for 1 mana more you gain 2 life and draw a card (if you have more life then Opponent) which you should, but it rebounds and does it again for free on your next upkeep netting you 4 life and 2 cards.

hmm.... not sure I like survival cache. it is always 4 life, but not always draw a card, as it depends on if I have more life. If I play it turn 3, it probably gets me an extra card, but if I draw it late it most likely does not.so its 4 life and MAYBE 1 or 2 cards for 2W I can only do on my turn vs 3 life and a guaranteed card for 1W I can do on my opponent's turn. I think I like the guaranteed card better, even if it the ceiling for revitalize is lower than survival cache, the floor is higher. 1 life isn't enough to make up for the uncertainty of the card draw, particularly if I am losing late game.I mean.. this deck technically isn't a life gain deck, but a combo deck that uses life gain, I don't expect it to block much, so your life total may not be as high as it would appear.
In your case that's probably a fair assessment, I normally play mono white clerics so I don't usually run into that issue.
+1Personally I would use Soul Warden over Cathedral Sanctifier and 4 [[Ancestor's Prophet]] seem to be too much, 3 would be enough for me. [[Cleric of Life's Bond]] or Bloodthirsty Aerialist could also be worth a look. Resplendent Angel could be used instead of [[Archfiend's Vessel]]+Acrobatic Maneuver
could swap Cathedral sanctifier for Soul Warden, but Bloodthirsty Aerialist and Resplendent Angel are a no go because they are not clerics, thus they cannot be tapped to use Prophet. perhaps I am sacrificing overall power for the gimmick, but I am ok with that.
Then you would have to get rid of Rhox Faithmender too, because he's a monk ;)Doubtless One, Vile Deacon, Profane Prayers and just came to my mind (for no other reason than being clerics or cleric-related spells)
oh dang... I missed that. thank you.hmm... now I need to find another card that doubles life gain... :(
OK, the comment on Rhox Faithmender was more meant as a joke, and not to remove him. Boon Reflection would at least look like a cleric-card, even if it's an enchantment.
actually, I need it to be a cleric to work with the combo.
Maybe Abiding Grace, Ascent of the Worthy, Call of the Death-Dweller or Cleric Class.Just an ideas.
not bad ideas.
[[Revival//Revege]] could be a win condition with Vito. It can also bring Vito back from the graveyard. Other option would be [[Patriarch's Bidding]], triggering ETBs and maybe giving enough clerics for Ancestor's Prophet
not a bad couple of suggestions.
