Newly called apostle, Elder Gerrit W. Gong, and his wife, Sister Susan L. Gong, will speak during the keynote address of BYU Women's Conference scheduled for May 4. President Russell M. Nelson and his wife, Sister Wendy W. Nelson, were scheduled to speak, but due to a scheduling conflict have asked the new apostle and his wife to fulfill that assignment.
