Kajtan Labuzinski was born in the Krakow area of Galicja in 1848. His father was a district court clerk in Krakow. After his ordination in that city, Labuzinski remained there to serve as a vicar. For a time, he was chaplain to the Sisters of the Visitation, but his longest assignment was at the parish church in Zwierzyniec.

Labuzinski immigrated to the United States circa 1890/1891. Records first mention him as the priest who replaced Ks. Walenty Swinarski as pastor in Mill Creek, PA in 1891. 1893 saw him assuming the pastorate of St. Stanislaus Parish in Newark, NJ. He also served as pastor of St. Stanislaus Parish in Camden, NJ. By 1895, Labuzinski was ministering in the Buffalo Diocese. Before being assigned to help organize and build Sts. Peter and Paul Church in Depew (where he remained as pastor from 1897 until his untimely death in November 1904), he worked in St. Stanislaus and St. Adalbert Parishes.
