Ὁ Ὅσιος Παφνούτιος τοῦ Μπορόβκ, κατὰ κόσμον Παρθένιος, ἔζησε κατὰ τὸν 13ο καὶ 14ο αἰώνα μ.Χ. Ὁ πατέρας του ὀνομαζόταν Ἰωάννης. Σὲ ἡλικία εἴκοσι ἐτῶν ὁ Παρθένιος ἔφυγε κρυφὰ ἀπὸ τὴν πατρικὴ οἰκία καὶ κατέφυγε σὲ μοναστήρι. Τὸ 1414 κείρεται μοναχὸς στὴ μονὴ Ποκρόβσκι Βισότσκι τῆς πόλεως Μπορὸβκ καὶ ὀνομάζεται Παφνούτιος. Ὅταν πέθανε ὁ ἡγούμενος τῆς μονῆς, ὁ Ὅσιος ἐξελέγη στὴ θέση του. Τὸ 1426 χειροτονεῖται πρεσβύτερος ἀπὸ τὸν Μητροπολίτη Κιέβου Φώτιο. Σὲ ἡλικία πενήντα ἑνὸς ἐτῶν ὁ Ὅσιος Παφνούτιος ἀσθένησε βαριὰ καὶ ἀποσύρθηκε ἀπὸ τὴν ἡγουμενία, ἀφοῦ ἔλαβε τὸ μέγα ἀγγελικὸ σχῆμα.
