Conseguiu-o na Sapataria Europeia, cidade de Nampula, isto entre 1954 e 1957. Aqui viria a tornar-se num grande sapateiro. Um profissional de referência. De “mão cheia”.

Sempre engajado no trabalho que era os seu ganha-pão, Padre Filipe José Couto, agora nomeado Reitor da Universidade Eduardo Mondlane, viu-se depois obrigado a largar a arte de fazer calçado, rumando para Portugal, onde viria a fazer o Ensino Secundário e a formação religiosa.
