Girls contacting missionaries?

[apricots]

First off: I'm currently talking to missionaries about converting, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease stop bugging me about my status or what ever on this site -___-

Anyway...

I've heard stories from friends about getting married because they were contacted via mail (letters) by girls from their home stake. Let me clarify: supposedly, a girl gets information on a current missionary (out of the area) and writes him a letter.

Again, I've heard of this numerous times.

My question:

Does the stake or ward offer mailing info on current missionaries from your area? I've seen posters in the stake building with all of the current missionaries. But do they offer information?

I asked my sister who is almost a member and she got pretty defensive, not sure why. But she is a strong feminist, so she may have thought I'd use it for contacting girls that are on their missions? Which I would be? But what's wrong with that? Isn't that the point? Stated in the second paragraph?

I feel dumb asking my bishop because for all I know it doesn't exist or is used for only families or something...

I hope I made myself clear... Thanks...
