I was six or seven at the time, and I had trouble filling one minute. They always relented, but it always made me feel as if I wasn't good enough. My prayers were, much summarized: "Hi... be with Mr Armstrong, be with the church... ummm... be with my parents... bye." Of course I was much more respectful, you know, God cares about how you address him.
