Summary/Abstract: Straipsnyje pristatoma vyskupo Vincento Borisevičiaus pastoracinė veikla jo vyskupavimo laikotarpiu. Pirmame skyriuje apžvelgiamos aplinkybės, kurioms esant vyskupas gebėjo atpažinti ir įvardyti tinkamus kriterijus pastoracinei veiklai plėtoti. Parodoma, jog vyskupas V. Borisevičius puikiai pajėgė burti ir ugdyti jam patikėtus tikinčiuosius. Vyskupas darė įtaką jiems žodžiu, įvairiopa veikla, rodė pavyzdį esant net labai sudėtingoms sąlygoms. Antrame skyriuje atskleidžiama, kaip vyskupas V. Borisevičius, įkūnydamas Gerojo Ganytojo modelį, rūpinosi karo ir priespaudos negandas patyrusiais žmonėmis – artimo meilės darbai buvo svarbi jo pastoracinės veiklos dalis. Trečiame skyriuje parodoma, jog vyskupas V. Borisevičius tobulu būdu įgyvendino ganytojo priedermę – sąmoningai prisiėmė kankinystę už savo tikinčiuosius. The pastoral practice of bishop Vincentas Borisevičius during the period of his episcopate is introduced in this article. In the first part of the article actual context, in which bishop was able to recognise and to designate appro- priate criteria for the development of his pastoral practice, is uncovered. It is revealed that bishop V. Borisevičius was able to perfectly organize and educate the part of God’s nation that was entrusted for him through his pastoral practice. He influenced people by his speech, his various activities and the example of himself, even given the difficult conditions of that time. The second part of the article discloses how bishop V. Borisevičius took care of his people with caritas love despite the disasters of war and occupation (epitomising the model of the Good Shep- herd). Finally, the third part reveals that bishop V. Borisevičius has carried through his duty of the shepherd: he deliberately bore the crown of martyrdom for his herd.
