Thanks to the priest Joseph Lepavec, in 1863 he traveled to Rome, where he was confirmed at his home.[15] He was appointed auxiliary bishop of the Roman Catholic bishop of Constantinople, exercising his ministry among the Byzantine rite Catholics of the city.[16] For most of the rest of his life he lived in Karákoy, in the monastery of a Franciscan convent, celebrating the divine daily liturgy at the church of Saint Anthony of Padua.[17] On June 17, 1867 Evsevidis was appointed assistant prelate to the pontifical throne of the Melkite Greek Catholic Church.[18]
