Actually Sister Patricia Proctor, OSC doesn't appear on Oprah, she has created a faux interview with Oprah to promote her new book 101 Inspirational Stories of the Sacrament of Reconciliation. To do so she uses an Oprah cut out. Sister Patricia even has a website, , not only to promote the book, but to encourage people who haven't gone to confession to return to the sacrament. The promo has been posted on YouTube. She takes the Franciscan call to preach the Gospel everywhere seriously. I think Ss Francis & Clare would approve of this method.
Here is the promo:
