New to pathfinder. So I am pretty much gonna be learning a new system alongside folks who are also new to it but have more experience than me. I have a lot of reading to do and could use help making the character so I am atleast some use to the party despite being new. I need suggestions on everything that would help me accomplish this 'helper newbie build'. I am assuming that the DM has access to d20pfsrd and Archives of Nethys. However, as a just in case, I plan on copy and pasting all details of items/feats/class features and source and sterf ( mainly for non-core and non-APG ). Looking to be cross between healer and backup melee.
Sources allowed are Core rulebook and Advanced player's guide. Other stuff is case by case basis ( DM is likely to be cool with stuff so long as it isn't game breaking ). Other party members is a monk ( dunno build ), a sacred servant paladin of some redeemer goddess, and a few other people that I don't know what characters they are.
Ability score is start at 10, 32 point-buy. I am looking at having 18 for charisma from point-buy with a preferance to a +2 to charisma from race if possible. What is good spread for rest of stats?
Race: Human is probably best or halfling, but I am open to suggestions ( no race builder ). If alternate racial traits ( if available ) are available, which are good.
Religion: Which is as close to Pelor / Ilmater as possible?
Archetypes: Looking to combine these assuming all are usable...

Wealth: seems like party is at 13th or 14th level at this point so WBL is either 140k or 181k
