The Little Sisters of the Lamb take nothing for the journey
First source report
Members of the Little Sisters of the Lamb practice a lifestyle of extreme poverty while evangelizing by walking from place to place and begging for food and lodging. According to a report by Heather King in Angelus News, these sisters carry no money and do not stockpile food for later use. King recounts an account from a traveler who observed a sister decline to save leftover food from a meal, illustrating the order's commitment to traveling without extra supplies.
