[5] At that time, despite Noli's attempts taking advantage even of his engagement in politics there was no success in consecrating Albanian bishops.
Xhuvani was consecrated bishop in Kotor, Kingdom of Slovenes, Croats, and Serbs from Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia, residing in Sremski Karlovci.
The relations were frozen for some time due to Xhuvani's strong oppositions to granting any requests to the Greek side.
Xhuvani was elected Primate of OACA in 1929, where King Zog pushed the Autochephaly as a priority of his state.
[1] Beside Albanian, Xhuvani knew English, German, Romanian, Serbo-Croatian, Italian, and Old and New Greek languages.
The delegation from Albanian government (including Koço Kota and Josif Kedhi) agreed on Kurilla's and Kotokos' presence under Kisi's hierarchy, in contradiction with what Xhuvani insisted.
[10] After the Italian invasion of Albania, he was part of the delegation which carried the Albanian throne to Victor Emanuel IIl in Rome.
[3] During World War II he helped Jewish families by providing fake documents of Albanian nationality and citizenship[11] while serving as Bishop of Berat.
