Ways to push through damage in mono-white

Like the title said I am looking for ways to push through damage in mono-white for Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit. I know about True Conviction, Akroma's Memorial, Victory's Herald, and Elite Scaleguard. What are some otherways to get around blockers in monowhite? I am preferably looking for ways to give multiple creatures evasion rather than just targeted.
Pretty much hit the nail on the head with those two. Those are the best options by far.

Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite is an absolute powerhouse. Usually makes attacking a much less tedious process.

I'm going to assume my joking didn't come across very well in text. I've got nothing against you.

You mean Center Soul, and also Mother of Runes works well with the protection theme.

Emerge Unscathed is a strictly better card than Center Soul...

Never said it wasn't, I was correcting the above poster because I think he meant Center Soul rather than Artful Maneuver.

Indestructibility, damage prevention and protection from stuff.

Thanks for the suggestions so far. Any others would be appreciated.

What's with everyone recommending spot protection when nfcnorth asked for ways to get multiple creatures through? Some other ideas:
- Heliod, God of the Sun - as said, mass vigilance makes attacking very easy.
- Concerted Effort - if one of your creatures has protection, they all get protection.
- Eldrazi Monument - sure, you lose a creature every turn, but how long are your opponents going to last against your army of indestructible flying death?
- Avacyn, Angel of Hope - they might not be able to get through any easier, but you can throw all your creatures at your opponent every turn with no fear of them dying.
I'm sure there are more I'm missing...

I've found Eight-and-a-Half-Tails to be a superb option.

Odric, Master Tactician seems like a good way.
