iPhone SE text messaging not working; MMS activation option missing.

My text messaging is not working. It says MMS is not activated. There is nowhere that offers MMS in my settings. I have a 2021 SE and version 26.6.1

thank you.

Contact your cell provider. The SIM needs to be reprovisioned as MMS is a cellular service.
