Howdy! My name is Mary Krulikowski and I'm a Christian Comedian who goes by the title, "Florida's Funny Lady." I've been entertaining and ministering to audiences throughout the U.S. and Canada since 1992. My ministry strives to encourage those who believe in Jesus Christ and evangelize those who don't.

In the summer of 2006 I relocated my family and ministry to the Nashville area. Sadly, it wasn't long before Stan, the love of my life and husband of nearly 25 years, became ill from physical, mental and emotional fatigue which gave depression a foothold in his life. After seeking treatment he was diagnosed with "Single Episode Major Depression" and while we fought desperately to get him the help he needed, we lost the battle when he took his life on May 18, 2007. My children (Ashley is 22 and Jeremy is 18) and I lost a most wonderful, Godly husband and father. We know we will see Stan again when we get to Heaven because he had placed his faith in Jesus Christ when he was in college. While this does bring comfort to our souls, we still miss him beyond words... In order to try to spare other families from having to live the rest of their lives with the devastating loss of someone they love, we published a book called, Suicide - When Love's Not Enough. In it, we tell our story, list warning signs of depression and suicide, and also give some suggestions of things to do in order to minister to someone who is grieving.

Please contact me if you would like more information on this subject. I will be more than willing to share what I know. My prayer is that you never have to experience the raw pain that we have felt. However, if you do, please know that God has not forsaken you and He will be there for you in your darkest hour... I also want to add that while I temporarily lost my happiness when Stan died, I did not lose my JOY because that comes from God and nothing in this world can rob me (or you) of this precious gift! I am grateful to my Heavenly Father for beginning to heal our hearts this past year and thankful that He gave us laughter - it truly is "good medicine."

If you need a laugh, below is a short clip from my recent performance at the South Carolina Southern Baptist Convention's "Women's Lifestyle Evangelism Conference" at First Baptist Church of Columbia. I'm a Southern Baptist "Preacher's Kid" and have always wondered what it would be like to attend a Pentecostal church service. I've heard that it's an exciting place where people are not afraid to raise their hands when they praise the Lord - imagine that! So, here's my version of what that experience would look like...
