editArchbishop Baraniecki was born in the szlachta Polish Roman Catholic family in the present day Ternopil Raion. After graduation of the school and Order of Saint Basil the Great college in Buchach education, he subsequently joined Faculty of Theology of the University of Lviv and the Major Roman Catholic Theological Seminary in Lviv. He was ordained as priest on October 6, 1822, for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Lviv by Archbishop Andrzej Alojzy Ankwicz,[1] when completed of the philosophical and theological studies.[2]
After his ordination, he served as an assistant priest, and later as a parish priest in the different parishes throughout his native Archdiocese. In 1838 he was appointed as a dean of the Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption, Lviv and simultaneously as a dean of Lviv deanery. This service he fulfilled until his archbishop's nomination.[2]

On January 13, 1850, he was consecrated as bishop by Bishop Franciszek Ksawery Wierzchleyski and other prelates of the Roman Catholic Church and the Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church[1] in the Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption, Lviv.[2]
