What 3rd level spell should a Vow of Peace/Poverty sorcerer take?

Haste?

I'm so peaceful. Let me help my buddies chop up the bad guys more quickly.

I'm not sure that works.

Cure Light Wounds?

I'm so peaceful. Let me heal my buddies so they can chop up more bad guys.

.....

Sleep?

I'm so peaceful. Let me put the enemies to sleep so my buddies can coup de gras them.

.....

Prestidigitation?

I'm so peaceful. Let me tidy up our clothes so we're more impressive and the Duke gives us a mission to clear out the nearby den of demons and devils instead of throwing us out on our asses, thus giving my buddies more morally unambiguous bad guys to kill.

By your logic, there is not one single spell in the game that would be appropriate to cast. Fortunately, your logic is not in any way, manner, or form supported by either the rules as written or the rules as intended.

It's worse than that, you can't help your party deal damage either. The wording of the feat reads "If you intentionally harm a living creature or help your allies harm a living creature, you lose the benefit of this feat".

Anyway, some good 3rd level spells to have...

Abjuration: Dispel Magic, Magic Circle against Evil, Protection from Energy.

Conjuration: Bands of Steel (Ref save + no SR = works against constructs!), Phantom steed (great utility), Stinking Cloud (as long as your DM rules that Naseuating is compatible with VoPeace).

Divination: Arcane Sight, Lesser telepathic bond (drop later).

Enchantment: Elation, Hold Person, Suggestion, Warcry.

Evocation: Wind Wall. I don't like Evocation, someone else may provide better advice.

Illusion: Displacement, Major Image.

Necromancy: Halt Undead, Ray of Exhaustion.

Transmutation: Blink, Fly, Gaseous Form, Haste, Greater Magic Weapon, Slow.
