Episcopacy On 21 January 1964, Pope Paul VI appointed Sikorski as the Bishop of Płock. He received his episcopal consecration on 5 April 1964. During his tenure, Sikorski oversaw the pastoral care of the diocese during a period marked by the challenges of communist rule in Poland. He was involved in the recovery of church property and cultural artifacts that had been lost during World War II. Notably, in 1978, after diplomatic efforts, a valuable statue from the Płock Cathedral treasury, which had been taken during the war, was returned to the diocese. Sikorski also played a role in the coronation ceremony of the Miraculous Image of Our Lady of Licheń, presiding over a Mass attended by youth during the event.
