This article aims to analyze catholic schooling practices and their uses in the life of Elfrida Lobo, between the end of the 1910s and the mid-1960s, using the ego document Retalhos de Uma Vida as a source. In the first part, the schooling practices experienced by Elfrida Lobo and provided to her by Colégio São José are investigated, bricolated with practices of catholic spirituality, but also transformed into educational practices in the daily education destined for Elfrida and her colleagues by the Sisters of Chambery. In the second part, the uses that Elfrida makes, in her adult life, of this repertoire of knowledge in the face of the facts that condition her life to maturity are studied: financial difficulties, widowhood, small children, the Christian faith, the desire for independence and a great inclination for the study of foreign languages. The conclusions point out that the teaching received at Colégio São José worked in many ways, although its purposes have been extrapolated to the intellectual expansion and financial and social independence of Elfrida Lobo through her training and professional performance. From the education received at the Catholic College and extended throughout her life, she made her own use.
