The Bible doesn't tell us to worship the Holy Spirit, although perhaps some folks misunderstand the meaning of John 4:23-24, where Jesus is quoted as saying:
23 "But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
Peace.

Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you:
Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
We are called to worship God in spirit and in truth.
John 4:23
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
John 4:22-24 (in Context) John 4 (Whole Chapter)
John 4:24
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

i guess the right way to ask this is to ask to your elder or pastor or priest...they are able to answer it...
but for me, i think there's nothing in the Bible says that... but
" worship IN spirit and in truth" ( John 4:24 ) not "worship TO/THE spirit"...
also the Bible talks about the tasks or work of the Holy Spirit; I Cor. 2:10-16, John 16:5-16...
maybe you would tell God is Trinity, yes indeed...Father is God, Jesus is God, Holy Spirit is God...if we worship the Father, we also worship the Holy Spirit who are both God...there is a logic there right? but remember that the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are equal in essence but DIFFERENT in functions...
Holy Spirit is the Divine Agent who accomplishes the will of the Godhead...
God bless!

it doesnt say worship the holy spirit to what i know of the bible so far... but it says worship God and Jesus and then Jesus died and had Resurrection and then left us the holy spirit to not leave us alone in this earth...
the holy spirit is part of God and Jesus to us ... that's why we have the trinity.. the Father, the son, and the holy spirit....
I'll come back if i see it..now ima search it...

it does not...Christians worship God not the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit has a different role.
Here is my opinion the Holy Spirit and Jesus are part of God.

Matthew 28: 16-20...16Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 when they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, " All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Actually, Paul said for us to be proper in our worshipping of "angels".
But not even God needs worship. Worship is for us. To stay in contact
with higher reality.
Think it's easy to communicate through a number of dimensions?
I don't think even Jesus wants to be worshipped, as far as falling all over
the place, and getting a sensual thrill. That's UGLY!
But we need to show honor and respect to all life.
