An Activity, like BroadcastReceiver is a class, so you've done it before. You just did it using existing mechanisms that make it simpler for you.
You should read up on how to use BroadcastReceiver to send messages (it can listen to whatever you want), though the LocalBroadcastReceiver should be used instead. You can also read up on the more general Observer Pattern and how to implement it.
