I've seen a cleric with a bow work even back in 3.5
Proficiency in a bow isn't that hard to get, take your time and focus on those feats. It gives you something to do when people aren't in trouble but if people are going to rely on you as the primary healer than that's your job. The archery will take care of itself, its good stuff. No you're not going to nuke things like a paladin or a fighter will, but you have remove whatever/cure spells/make someone immune to something in your back pocket.
You'll hurt things with a bow, not hard to do.

A battle oracle can get access to all martial weapons. Though some of the bonus spells would be a waste.
If your gm would allow it, theres a trait in the PFS guide for andoran that gives access to either a longbow or shortbow (your choice). That would allow archery without feats or multiclassing.
Theres always an inquisitor as well. Seems like they were designed to be an archer firehose.
