Cyryl Lubowidzki was born in Durkhiv near Rivne in the Berezne parish (Diocese of Lutsk-Zhytomyr-Kamyanets) as a son of Ignacy and Tekla née Podhorecka (Pohorecki).

During this period, he also experienced constant kindness from Bishop Kasper Borowski, who held the episcopal office from 1848 in the Diocese of Lutsk-Zhytomyr-Kamyanets, his former professor of Church history and canon law at the Spiritual Academy.

[2] As an administrator, he managed to obtain from Emperor Alexander II a decision to re-establish the diocesan seminary (5 January 1881), closed in 1876, which actually resumed its activity on 29 November 1881.

After less than five years of administration, on 1 July 1885, he had to greet the new shepherd of Lutsk-Zhytomyr-Kamyanets, Bishop Szymon Marcin Kozłowski (his friend from the time of his studies at the St. Petersburg Theological Academy), to whom he handed over the office.

Cyril Lubowidzki was appointed in 1884 to the post of suffragan of Lutsk-Zhytomyr-Kamyanets, which had been vacant for ten years (his predecessor, bishop Ludwik Bartłomiej Brynk, died on 19 September 1874).

The consecration of the nominee took place on 29 June 1884 in the church of St. Katarzyna Aleksandryjska in Sankt Petersburg, and was led by the Metropolitan of Mogilev, Aleksander Kazimierz Gintowt-Dziewałtowski, together with the Lutsk-Zhytomyr-Kamyanets ordinary, Szymon Marcin Kozłowski and the Tyrespole suffragan, Antoni Jan Zerr.
