Because the xmas lights keep tripping the circuit, the party decided to add a circuit just for the xmas lights. But is unsure what the amps should be?

Cheapest solution is to use less lights! Depends on the load. However, I think a 20 amp with 12AWG would be sufficient unless they have the entire house lit up. Might be cheaper to switch to LED lights, particularly if they will have a licensed electrician do the job.

Adding a new circuit.. To what? Where? The main panel? Extending an existing circuit?
Hi Pastor, based on some of your past miseries with electrical wiring around your church I would make very sure of what your folks want to do, please then come back and ask us.
I hope you Thanksgiving and Christmas are joyful.
It from the main panel to the carport it about ft.
Electrician wants to add a GFCI among the other
Parts. Cost is $200.00 seems fair to me.
Because the circuit is outdoors, GFCI protection is required.
I cannot comment on the cost, but please make sure the electrician pulls a permit and gets the work inspected if that is a requirement in your area.
Very good
