You're looking for something to give you long lasting energy. All the energy drinks you mentioned will rapidly increase your metabolism, increase the amount of energy you'll need and dehydrate you. Plus 30 hours with a racing heartbeat's not particularly good for anyone, the risk of cardiac or muscular damage and collapse from electrolyte imbalance is huge.
Please let your church know that energy drinks should never be used for a fast, it's dangerous. Nothing with caffeine, guarana or taurine should be used.
For short term rehydration, try gatorade - very good electrolyte profile. To prevent you from feeling hungry, protein-rich drinks such as liquid breakfast alternatives or smoothies are the outright best choice (if this is allowed). Flavoured milk drinks will fill you up best. This kinda goes against the spirit of the fast, though, so see what they want.

never drink energy drinks on an empty stomach! do you want to live for 30 hrs with a racing heart, etc? drink water. it's healthier.

does that mean you have to stay awake for 30 hours? if not, that is still terrible to tell people to survive 30 hours off energy drinks. just drink water, that is true fasting.

water is best for a fast, but try Vault if you must.
